'India Jones is a city-witch with a problem - her witchcraft is turning dangerously unstable. And worse, the only people who can help are the family she hasn't seen in forever, on their isolated farm in Victoria, Australia.

'But the farm and dark forest surrounding it hold dangerous secrets: an unearthly magic that beckons her into the forest, the truth behind her parents’ death, and a riveting stranger all too at home on her family’s property.

'Ruthless and deadly, Thrane is the last Keeper. Eons ago, the Old Gods created the World Tree to connect the three Worlds.

Only the Immortal Keepers stand in their way.

'To save the Mortalworld – and herself – India must face the most dangerous secret of all. Hers.'
