After the most chaotic two weeks of her young life, Amber Martel finds herself back in the comfort and safety of her grandparents' house on Prince Edward Island. Her parents are safe, her friends are by her side, and they have time to lick their wounds and reassess their next steps. Finally, she has returned to the place she longed for: home.

But Amber can't relax. Not when her dragon, Ddraig, is struggling to heal from a grievous wound. Not when fear and memories keep her up at night. Not when a visit to an old haunt reveals the origins of her magic, a new threat to her loved ones, and a potential target in Arman's plan to reopen the rifts and let monsters flood the world once more.

Forced to return to life on the road, Amber must grapple with emerging romantic feelings, protecting her friends from the things they want most, and the unbearable weight of truth and deceit.
