For fans of Katherine Arden and Samantha Shannon, a Celtic-inspired tale of a gifted young druid who enters a village that rejected her order and uncovers a shadowed forest, a buried past, and a truth that could unravel everything she believes.

Gaeldryn is a gifted young druid with the rare ability to hear the faint echoes of the Song, the ancient harmony that binds the natural world. When she is summoned to the remote village of Lumenth, she expects a posting of healing and second chances—a way to heal the forest and restore trust in her order. Instead, she finds mistrust, grief, and silence. The villagers speak in half-truths. The forest watches without answering. And the druids sent before her never returned.

As Samhain approaches and the Veil between the living and the dead grows thin, Gaeldryn uncovers a buried history of forbidden magic, abandoned duty, and corruption that has waited fifty years to be freed. To restore balance, she must risk more than her life—she must decide whether truth is worth the cost of everything she once believed.
