[bellantara]

Shayla is the scandal of her village. She lives alone, is unmarried at the unheard of age of twenty, and. . .just doesn't fit in. Her strange red hair and green eyes long ago convinced the village that she was a witch. She has felt the shadows' touch, but was left unharmed. In fact, the shadows melted away from her. Determined to discover why, she sets out for Tyran, the nearest large city, unaware that the shadows exist beyond her village and are watching her. . . .
