For some, the only way to possess magic is to steal it from others.

Born without magic, Davis is an outcast in his own shapeshifter family. Yearning for his father's approval, he sets down a path that intertwines with Iris, a girl whose own ambitions are hindered by a mysterious illness.

Their quest leads to Yuras, one of California's smallest towns, unremarkable until they discover a cave of magic-transferring stones. Now they have a chance to change their fates. But they're not alone.

When Nivi, a Yuras local, stumbles upon the cave, she unknowingly sets into motion a series of events that threatens to expose Davis's past as well as her own.

As dark truths surface, one question endures: How much are they willing to take in their quest for power?

A perfect book for those who enjoy a fast-paced story with multiple POVs across converging timelines, unique shapeshifters inspired by Chinese mythology, strong female protagonists, a diverse cast, and complex villains.
