"Mona Jones has been on the run all her life without really knowing why. Her parents were murdered, and now, at twenty-one, her uncle and protector is dead too. This chain of events compels Mona to spend time amid a Welsh-speaking community in Ynys Môn, also known as Anglesey. Here, her druidic ancestry begins to emerge, though it is spotted more quickly by those around her. She is branded by an enemy druid and finds herself at the centre of a druidic civil war."--Page [4] of cover.
