**From Adrienne Young, New York Times bestselling author of Sky in
the Deep, comes her new gut-wrenching epic The Girl the Sea Gave
Back.
**
For as long as she can remember, Tova has lived among the Svell, the
people who found her washed ashore as a child and use her for her gift
as a Truthtongue. Her own home and clan are long-faded memories, but the
sacred symbols and staves inked over every inch of her skin mark her as
one who can cast the rune stones and see into the future. She has found
a fragile place among those who fear her, but when two clans to the east
bury their age-old blood feud and join together as one, her world is
dangerously close to collapse.
For the first time in generations, the leaders of the Svell are divided.
Should they maintain peace or go to war with the allied clans to protect
their newfound power? And when their chieftain looks to Tova to cast the
stones, she sets into motion a series of events that will not only
change the landscape of the mainland forever but will give her something
she believed she could never have again--a home.
