It's Christmas Eve in 1899 when Rafe dreams of his home burning and a beautiful girl offering him safety. This only adds to his worries about the upcoming magical world Separation and the growing presence of a dangerous gang.

Despite the protective watch of Henrietta Burke and the interference of a time traveller who joins the Savages, Rafe's destiny may be closer than he expects.
