It has been fifteen years since the Quiet Revolution sent Warren Danning and his family into hiding. Escaping the chaos, the Dannings found refuge as hired hands on the ranch of Cain, a grey-haired and eccentric, former slave. In the wild lands of the Outer Territories, the family has had to learn the arts of bushcraft quickly to adapt and survive. When an old friend of Warren’s arrives one night, blood-soaked and bearing strange wounds, the family is suddenly thrust into an astounding reality of old magics, powerful relics, and enigmatic creatures. But the revelation that an ancient evil has returned, brings perilous implications for the Dannings, and the world. Love and courage drive the Danning family, as they face impossible odds, to stop the rising tide of a mystical civil war that threatens to plunge the world into darkness and ruin.
