Eva Moonbright has spent her life believing she is the problem.
Misunderstood by her family and haunted by experiences she cannot explain, she has learned to make herself smaller, easier to ignore. Then the impossible begins to notice her. A dog follows her home. The sea seems to know her. The dead offer advice. And somewhere beyond the ordinary world, an ancient gate is waiting. Drawn into a conflict she barely understands, Eva is surrounded by those who offer pieces of the truth—but no one who possesses all of it. And as the danger reaches from the clouds to the sea, she must decide whom to trust, and how far mercy can reach when certainty has run out. Because Eva was never made to fit the life she has been trying to survive. The world is much larger than she knew.
