After the sudden death of her father, Isabella Dean and her mother move into Aunt Linda's old home in Asheville's Montford Historic District, where the house itself seems to breathe with memory. Between adjusting to a new school, enduring the cruelty of Lucy, and trying to make sense of her growing sensitivity to light and sound, Isabella doesn't yet realize she's standing on the edge of a greater awakening.
When Isabella and her friends-Amber, Katie, Jessica, Kelly, Joseph, and the reluctant genius Cindy-stumble into the rescue of sixty-five trafficked transgender girls hidden in the mountains, they find themselves drawn into a web of human horror and spiritual consequence. During the aftermath, Isabella and Amber witness the spectral figure of Mary, a luminous presence both mournful and protective, foreshadowing the veil that separates life from spirit.
Under the guidance of Winona Gray, the group begins to understand that their empathy and courage have opened something ancient. The Earth remembers what has been lost-and it is calling back its defenders.
Before the season ends, Winona will speak the words that define them all: The girls with the gift.
The Girl with the Gift begins the VeilWalkers Saga, a powerful story of loss, compassion, and awakening in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
