Lies. Betrayal. Destiny. A choice that changes everything.

My name is Juliet Wildfire Stone, and I am special. I see visions and hear voices, and I have no idea what they mean.

When someone murders medicine men in my sleepy Arizona town, I can't help but worry my crazy grandfather is involved. He's a medicine man and more than a just a little eccentric. He likes to tell me stories about the Great Wind Spirit and Coyote, but none of it makes any sense. I thought I knew the truth, but in order to clear his name I dive into his alien world and uncover an ancient secret society formed over two hundred years ago to keep me safe--me! And I can't help but to start to wonder whether there's some truth to those old stories my grandfather has been telling me.

I just want to be an average sixteen-year-old girl, but apparently I've never been average. Could never be average. I didn't know it before, but I'm a Chosen, and those voices I've been hearing... well, they're not just "voices." I've started to develop abilities, but they might not be enough. A powerful entity called a Seeker is hunting me and he's close--really close.

I thought I knew the answers but truth is, I don't. Betrayed by those I love, I must choose to run or risk everything in order to fulfill my destiny. I hope I make the right choice. Don't you?

Includes a special sneak preview of the second book in the series, Brink of Dawn.
