14-year-old Flora has always craved adventure-but when she runs away from home, she gets more than she bargained for. Lost in a strange forest she's never seen on any map, she stumbles upon an ancient, twisted tree unlike anything she's ever encountered. As she steps closer, she realizes the tree isn't just cool-it's *alive*, and it may be the key to a hidden world filled with secrets, creatures, and dangers she never imagined. Can Flora uncover the truth behind the forest before it's too late... or will the forest keep her forever?
