Aleksandra 'Leksa' Barlow is your average twenty-five year old. Having graduated college just six months before she got the call of her grandmother's passing. She returns to the home she went to every summer, the island where her grandmother was born; to clean it out before it is sold. Bringing along her best friend Alanna, Leksa has two weeks before the final sale of the 10 plus acres property she practically grew up on. But memories as well as people from her past begin to surface.
Her life turns upside down as the memories return and she begins to uncover her past. The people she spent her time with, and what she did with that time. She always knew how much she wanted to return to her childhood home, but the yearning was much more than she anticipated.

The Alchemist's cage
They said power came from bloodlines. Alethia is about to learn it also comes with a body count.
