They said Taminy-a-Cuinn was a sorceress who drowned in the Meri's Sea, punished for seeking a station denied to women by tradition. One hundred years have passed and Taminy has returned to the land of the living with a purpose only she knows. Some see her reappearance as a miracle. Others see it as a diabolical plot to overthrow both the religion and government of Caraid-land.
Colfre Malcuim, King, sees it as a means of making his own power absolute.
For good or ill, Taminy is the pivot upon which the future of a people turns. She is also a seventeen-year-old girl, learning anew what it means to be human. Will she fulfill her purpose, or will she become a pawn in a high-stakes game of political chess?
