The book is set in the mystical Great Smoky Mountains and tells a story of an orphaned member of the decreasing Faeran clan, an ancient race of forest people who have lived deep in the woods for as long as the trees have grown there. Humans begin to arrive, cutting down plethoras of the forest Willa loves deeply and doesn’t know how to stop them.
