Opis

There are those who will do anything to capture the talisman...

Aishling's mother vanished on Halloween, 1989. It's been sixteen months, and she can't convince those at the Home Ma is alive. She's running out of time. Soon, they'll place her somewhere else. Ma would never find her then.

The only thing she remembers about that night is something she can't reveal. Another secret she can't reveal? Ma is a Celtic witch.

Her "gift" of prophetic dreaming also vanished that Halloween, until last night's dream. Now, an enormous, horned serpent dangles in her sleepy memory.

When Morrigan, Lance, and Kelile arrive at the Home, she recognizes them. From where? Propelled by individual quests, the combative, diverse teens escape the Home. During their perilous trek through the mountainous backwoods of North Carolina, some of her dormant abilities awaken. But she needs more than magic to survive. She needs the others.

She dreams of the monstrous snake again and discovers the others have too. Lance explains they are dreaming about a Cherokee mythical dragon-serpent and its all-powerful, magical talisman. Why is she dreaming of it? Why are the others?

Aishling must face her greatest fears, uncover a heart-rending truth, and make a dreadful choice to find out. -Dead Moon Awakens, Book 1 of the MYSTIC GATES, a magical realism adventure-
