For some, tales of the island are nothing more than whispered myths. For others, it is a place of death. For the Empress who rules there, it is home.</p><p></p><p>For the people of Tenek, the island is not even a story. Their isolated homeland is far removed from the outside world and its mysteries, a fact that suits the green-eyed inhabitants just fine. But for one girl, that isolation has made life on Tenek very lonely.</p><p></p><p>Tamarin is an outcast. Born with golden eyes, fiery red hair, and dark skin, her timid nature is a stark contrast to the foreign features that make her stand out in her village. To avoid the whispers, most of her days are spent hiding in trees or helping her father in the infirmary.</p><p></p><p>Adden is a willful boy, carefree and prone to mischief. Drowning in a sea of siblings and drudgery, he finds himself drawn to the brilliant, golden-eyed girl of his village.</p><p></p><p>A foolish stunt leaves Adden with a gash on his head and Tamarin with a peculiar patient. Though they're as different as night and day, they form a friendship that grows with each mishap and adventure.</p><p></p><p>When the foreigner, Galb, arrives on their shores with his crew, Tamarin and Adden are pulled toward a world beyond Tenek. Tales of her mother's homeland set Tamarin's heart ablaze, and she craves a connection with the mother she never knew. Adden longs for a life at sea, full of sailing and discovery.</p><p></p><p>But the stories of Ku lua Pele are more than myth, and for a bloodthirsty Empress hunting a golden-eyed race, no place is too far.</p>
