This literary novel explores the supernatural heritage that connects us to the land, the price of freedom, and the truth that even in paradise, shadows gather where children play. It's a story of transformation that spans from the horror of human bondage to the radical hope of self-determination, anchored by the understanding that the earth itself remembers everything—and sometimes, what it remembers has teeth.
