Fairytales aren’t meant to begin midage, but fate has other plans. After loss dulls her life’s magic, Daciana moves through the world, more shadow than self—until a mysterious gift arrives at her door on the day after her fortieth birthday. A whisper from her past, a key to her Romanian roots, and a call from ancient beings who have been waiting to pull her in…
Not all heroes are young. Not all adventures begin at twenty.
Finally—a novel that embraces the magic of experience. The time has come for stories that celebrate wisdom, strength, and second chances.
This slow-burning mystery is woven from older magic, wilder myths, and creatures long forgotten. Rooted in over two-thousand-year-old legends and Romanian folklore, this story is raw, untamed and unlike anything you’ve read before.
