In a world where magic has to hide itself, Sooneawa is no ordinary Native American girl. She has a special gift and a special friend and a talent she doesn't even know about yet. With her talkative feline friend, she heads off to college to study veterinary medicine. Along the way, she finds a few friends, both magical and otherwise, a young man who is rather... anti-magical, and one very powerful, very power-hungry young wizard who will stop at nothing to possess her.
Oh, and did we mention the powerful Native American spirit that has marked her for its own?
