To survive, Tey must navigate a web of lies and loyalty while uncovering the truth about the Shadowborn, children cursed by the islands with powers they never asked for and enslaved for what they've become.Desperate to escape, Tey allies herself with Rob Stryker, a daring young bounty hunter with secrets of his own. But she must decide how far she is willing to go for freedom. As her feelings for Rob deepen, so does her resolve to help the Shadowborn. And when she risks everything to rescue one of them from a cruel master, she faces an impossible choice: escape the islands...or stay and fight for the ones who can't.
