The dead have been buried. Silence is broken. And secrets refuse to stay where they lay.
As the troop pushes east toward Harper's Creek, the weight of their survival in Windyspring lingers-along with a growing fear of what lies ahead. Tommy's power evolves beyond even the elves' understanding, and Arisaylia begins to question whether the path she and her son will walk was ever theirs to choose.
Back in Redtail Hold, Sella finds herself drawn into a role far greater-and more dangerous-than her songs alone. Her rising influence in the eyes of the elves threatens the balance of the Hold, and the line between duty and desire grows thinner and thinner.
But war isn't fought only with weapons. As old alliances fray and ancient eyes turn towards the Serensea, both soldier and singer must decide who and what they are-before the tide of history swallows them before their new fate is born.
Harper's Creek is Book Four of The Chronicles of the Troop, where fantasy meets philosophy, and where battles of the heart are as perilous to everyone involved as those of sword and hidden sorcery.
From the back cover:
Then she turned her two piercing grey eyes back onto Sella. Give us a song now, little songbird ... Something to keep the peace between nations while we drink.
Aeons ago an ancient war ravaged the land, and no one knows why.
The invasion continues.
The troop has escaped destruction through an unlooked-for event after being cornered by the ondilaani army that tracked them. It was something so shocking that no one could have predicted what happened, and not something seen in an age.
Meanwhile, Sella gave in to her feelings, but was interrupted during her moment with Pawdrig by the one who had warned her against that. And though Lord Maorilan had smiled, Tessa most certainly had not, nor had the ones who had delighted tormenting her.
But what no one knows is that new players are coming to the Serensea, and new events.
Nor how it all will affect them.
For mature readers: Explicit fantasy violence, realistic trauma, moral weight, and thematic intensity. No sex.
