"To play the pawns well; they are the soul of chess: it is they which uniquely determine the attack and the defense, and on their good or bad arrangement depends entirely on the winning or losing of the game." - François-André Danican Philidor They say the weakest piece in the game of chess is the pawn. Smallest in size, lowest in rank and value. "Many take pawns for granted," she said, "they see it as pieces easily manipulated, but what they don't realize is, pawns can be anything... even a Queen." "Checkmate, Alpha." They believed she was chosen by the Moon, but she preferred the word cursed, bound to serve until her debts were paid. He was said to be blessed amongst all of his kind, but he was cunning and ruthless. One move can surely change the course of the game.

Siena can heal wounds with a touch of her hands. A captive since birth, she is used as a tool of war by a Plainsmen tribe. A chance escape into the forest proves successful... and deadly. Rescued by the Forestfolk--a group of people she always thought were nothing more than bedtime stories--Siena remains on edge. Trust does not come easily when persecution is all she's ever known. Keeping her abilities a secret seems like the right thing to do, until a tragic accident renders two Forestfolk spiraling toward death. If she chooses to reveal her abilities, she risks being subjugated again. Treated as no longer human. Maybe even sent back to the Plainsmen. But keeping her talent to herself means ignoring the injured around her, even allowing them to die. The choice seems obvious to Siena, but living with the repercussions of that choice is another matter altogether. A journey of self-discovery, a bit of adventure, and a splash of romance. On the Wattys 2017 Shortlist!
