The first step into the thrilling middlegrade fantasy world of The Shamer Chronicles

Dina has unwillingly inherited her mother's gift: the ability to elicit shamed confessions simply by looking into someone's eyes. To Dina, however, these powers are not a gift but a curse. Surrounded by fear and hostility, she longs for simple friendship.

But when her mother is called to Dunark Castle to uncover the truth about a bloody triple murder, Dina must come to terms with her power - or let her mother fall prey to the vicious and revolting dragons of Dunark.

Industry Reviews

"The most original new fiction of this kind ... thrilling and thoughtful." -- The Times

"Spiced with likable characters and an intriguing new magical ability - eagerly awaiting volume two." --Kirkus

"This novel stands on its own and offers a satisfying conclusion even as it provides an intriguing setting and mythology for future adventures." -- Publishers Weekly

"An absorbing and fast-paced fantasy/mystery bursting with action and intrigue. The only question is: when will the next one come out?" -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"Full of passion." -- Guardian

I gobbled it up!" - Tamora Pierce, author of The Song of the Lioness
