Her reception in New Haven is not as warm and welcoming as it could be. April still feels lost. It doesn't take long to realize that she isn't quite like the New Haven residents, in more ways than they can see with their strangely dark eyes. And there is one big secret that she must keep or she will be banished back to the lonely forest of the outer-world. Worse yet, the magically-guarded realm has its own troubles. The barrier that blocks all large and dangerous creatures from entering the special world is failing fast.
