A tribe of warrior women battle for their survival in a harsh environment.

Rain, the daughter of their queen, Alina, struggles against her destiny to become queen, to fight and to kill. Followed by a strange prophesy, Rain finds her life will take a new path.

The warriors have always maintained their power through violence, but Rain finds a new kind of strength comes from bonds of friendship and love.

An immensely powerful and sparely written tale that will capture the imagination of all readers.
