A boring life.
That's all Talatha asked for. She's been able to live that way for years-a wife to a talented fletcher, a mother to a newborn son.
But her Shield of blue Light can only protect her for so long.
She despises the power thrust upon her in her youth. Despite her loathing, Talatha feels forced to use her Shield to protect herself and her family from those seeking Lightbearers to bolster their forces for an underground war.
But now they've found her. What happens if her gift can no longer protect her or the ones she loves?
