Tajore Arkle

A young girl’s long and dangerous journey to save a friend she has never met …
In Greycliffs, where Anya lives, the people work hard in the slab-rock quarry for most of their life. A rockfall that Anya foresaw in her dreams is blamed on her and she is sent away to the Mountain; a place for those who are different – the Pastseers. For the first time in her life, Anya is accepted, able to be herself. She and Ib, a young boy, are the only children on the Mountain, until they find out that there is a third child who belongs there with them. But who or where she is no one knows. The girl seems to be living in the Rift in Anya’s dreams, although everyone says it is death to go there. But Anya will risk everything she has gained to help this girl and bring her home to the Mountain of Tajore Arkle …
