Wren Ashwood moves to the forests of Southeast Alaska to live with her new guardians after her mother dies. But when her guardian reveals that her mother wasn't who she pretended to be, Wren's grip on reality and her sense of self begin to unravel. Wren must decide who to trust-a boy with striking green eyes, dreams from a different reality, and a voice purporting to be the forest-and uncover the truth about her mother's past before the powers governing the forest destroy her.
