One of the last members of an ancient race of forest people who are highly in tune with the trees and animals, Willa spends her days and nights foraging and scavenging from the cabins of her peopleâs greatest foes, the axe-wielding ânewcomers.â Through a series of frightening encounters and an unexpected kindness, Willa soon begins to understand that the newcomers, as well as her own people, are not as they have always seemed, setting in motion her quest for a new home and sense of belonging in a changing world.
