Young. Unproven. The future rests on her shoulders. Her birth served only one purpose—to propel the Sisterhood one step closer to the ninth daughter. The prophecy is clear: ". . . and the ninth daughter of the ninth daughter shall restore balance to the land and bring an end to the rise of the Shadow." Kahu Uira Hawthorn is the eighth daughter—the stepping stone, not the solution. She grew up in the midst of powerful witches and skilled healers. Her mother, Kapowai, is the High Priestess of the Grand Coven of the Sacred Wood and a venerated leader. When the time comes, Kahu will inherit the wand and become the High Priestess of all Aotearoa, a destiny bound to her the moment she drew her first breath. She may prove to be a wise and powerful leader, but her legacy will be judged by only one measure. Did she deliver the child of prophecy? Buy your copy today and join the adventure!

Memorable, likable main characters. – Roger FFirst time reading a steampunk style occult alternative thriller. Lol I loved it, and the author takes you into their world and makes you think and wonder about what's happening. Looking forward to reading more of the adventures of this author. – Linda WI really enjoyed the characters and the refreshing new look at 19th century London as a steampunk setting. I can see this as a potential movie plot with Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman, Rachel Wietz, and Angela Bassett. – Chris A.It's time for you to cross the aether and become immersed in the adventure and thrills.
