Publisher's Synopsis
Raised by her father in obscurity in a quiet little town, Dorothy was unaware of her heritage as anything but a headman's daughter. Her future was one of modest leadership, to take her father's place as a guide and guardian of the town and its people, until the storm came and destroyed everything, killing everyone she knew and loved. Now she must build a new life for herself with the traveling carnival that rescued her, find a new calling amidst showmen and wanderers. She must reconcile her new role with the knowledge an impossibly old stranger has about her family. And she must always keep one eye out behind her for signs of the chaotic malevolence that destroyed her old family and now hunts her to the edges of her world.
