Tana Lockwood will either save the world or doom it to ruin… just by existing.
For a thousand years, humans and cambions have lived peacefully, the threats that once haunted them sealed away in the tundra north of the mountains. For a thousand years, those threats faded with each generation, becoming nothing more than myths and stories with which to frighten children. For a thousand years, the bloodlines of cambions, descendants of humans and demons, were diluted to mere traces.
Until a baby girl and her sister were taken from their birthplace and brought to the southern edge of the Median, where as the baby grew up she also grew horns.
Naturally curious and stubborn, Tana Lockwood doesn’t easily allow stares and whispers to bother her, even though her sister is so perfectly human beside her. While their adoptive father has no explanations for Tana's appearance, he'd raised her as his own, wondering through the years at her true lineage.
The life the Lockwoods built tilts the day the summons drew Tana's father away from home. After an attack in the forest and having received no word from him for weeks, a mysterious message arrives, bearing news of treachery and a request for Tana to flee. Cornered, she travels south to Ilari, where she's longed to visit and where answers about her lineage at last begin to emerge—and with them more danger than she can imagine.
One war long lost is reignited. The flames of another are stoked.
And Tana finds herself playing with fire.
