Disowned, alone, desperate…
Her humanity stripped from her with a brand, Celeste is desperate enough to try anything to escape a life working in a brothel.
After a near fatal plunge over a cliff, she washes ashore to find a family willing to nurse her back to health.
Celeste recovers, slowly coming to trust the family, and despite his fierce appearance, even the terrifying ex-knight who speaks only with strange hand signs.
Her tenuous peace is shattered when the eldest son, a soldier, sworn to return illegal slaves to their owners, arrives injured and furious with his family for harbouring her.
With war on the horizon, and bounty hunters closing in on Celeste’s location, time is running out…for them all.
