When a volcano cuts short the coming-of-age training of a young priestess, she must find the strength within herself to ensure the survival of her family.

Leira is about to start her initiation as a priestess when her world is turned upside down.

A violent earthquake leaves her home--and her family--in pieces.

And the earth goddess hasn't finished with the island yet.

With her family, Leira flees across the sea to Crete, expecting sanctuary.

But a volcanic eruption throws the entire world into darkness.

After the resulting tsunami, society descends into chaos; the status and privilege of being noble-born are reduced to nothing.

With her injured mother and elderly nurse, Leira must find the strength and resourcefulness within herself to find safety.

A thrilling new Bronze Age survival story from the award-winning author of Dragonfly Song and Nim's Island .
