Undrowned

By G.M. DiDesidero

Back Cover Copy: THE GREAT FLOOD WAS JUST THE BEGINNING . . . The Patrons gifted the five clans of Terra with powers known as cannys. But the clans warred, and the Patrons took sides . . . nearly destroying humanity. Though the Patrons managed to spare Terra alone, it came at a cost. Centuries later, with the cannys whispered as mere myth and the Patrons all but forgotten, fifteen-year-old Jasper Lindstedt from the Fox clan and sixteen-year-old Harissa Delmar from the Tiger clan become enemies through more than just their lineage. After being forced to flee a mutual threat, Jasper and Harissa must team up to unravel the secrets of Terra, discover the truth about the Patrons, and save their own lives. Inside Cover Copy: THE DEBUT NOVEL FROM INDIGENOUS AUTHOR G. M. DiDESIDERO The Ancient Ones journeyed from the Underworld to fill the whole earth, and the Patrons gifted the five clans with cannys . . . The Shapeshifter taught the Tigers to change their appearance; the Thunderbird taught the Birds to fly; the Parity taught the Raccoons healing; the Soul Eater taught the Shadows how to leave their bodies as they slept; and the Horned Serpent gave variable and unique cannys to the Foxes. Centuries later, fifteen-year-old Jasper Lindstedt--a kid from Fox territory with a penchant for mischievousness--finds himself in more trouble than he bargained for after freeing a dying Shapeshifter from captivity. Harissa Delmar, a sixteen-year-old from Tiger territory, never wanted to join the Chame-lion spy program, but she wasn't given much choice. She is forced to carry out the unsavory duties of a Chame-lion to pay for the treatment of her mother's escalating illness. When Jasper is framed for murder, and Harissa uncovers a dark secret that threatens the lives of Harissa and her mother, they all must escape the city of Cambion, embarking on a perilous mission to stay alive. Along the way, enemies Jasper and Harissa must work together as the truth begins to unfold about their world, themselves, and life as they know it.
