Terebeth was found in the woods as a child, with not even a name in her memories. Her shoulder was marred with inky black lines that speak a language few know anymore, and it labeled her as a Chaiil -- a shape-shifter identified by the Mark of War on her shoulder. Raised safe and loved within her adopted home within a Chaiil community, Terebeth has a loving family and an adoring older sister. She fits in just fine in the lives of the Marked Ones, and she longs for nothing. Her peaceful life changes when the worst invader her people have ever known escapes from a prison that was meant to last forever, and the town turns their suspicious eyes on her. Forced to flee or risk imprisonment and torture, Terebeth and her sister go on the run dragging another unlikely helper with them. The three teens struggle to clear Terebeth's name, but to do that they must figure out who they can trust... and try to stay alive.
