Her Viola has the power to create the worlds of the pieces she plays. When a new evil threatens to bring havoc onto her kingdom, she must journey into a new world and find a talisman that cannot be found. But the world is closing up-fast, and if she doesn't find it in time, the gates will close and she will be trapped. Cover by: solidarity_ Copyright © 2016 by Peyton Taylor All rights reserved.
