Don't go into those Woods. We don't need any of that dark magic here.
Upon moving to WaterEdge Manor, Anika throws herself into saving her war-torn lands and avoiding the marriage politics of the nobles. But when thieves from the dark Woods offer her tenants the means to rebuild-illegally-she finds herself torn between morals. So she goes into the Woods herself and discovers the secret of the Silver Raiders. When the nobles put a ransom on the thieves, Anika makes her decision to keep their secret, and finds herself entrapped in their fight for freedom.
But there's another behind it all. One who Anika can't uncover until she's too late. One who claims to hold power over death itself, and there's nothing the thieves, especially Ronin Hood, wouldn't do to bring back his lost son.
The power of the trees should never have been awoken.
This is a companion novel to The Storyteller's Daughter. Both books are unique plots with a few recurring characters between them. It's suggested to read in order to avoid minor spoilers, but it's not necessary.
