Sofi and Darja seem like average teenagers, with one major difference--one of them is dead.

The bond between them awakens an old magic, lost for generations from Vaikesti, the small, insulated community in which they live. But with impossible magic comes impossible questions--where did it come from? Why did it choose them? And should they use their newfound power to seek revenge for Darja's wrongful death?

As they search for the answers to their questions, long-buried secrets begin to surface. And when a mysterious stranger starts poking around in the darkest corners of the town's history, Sofi and Darja must decide if he can help them make sense of Vaikesti's sordid past--before the whole town ends in ashes.
