The Isle of Skiy, surrounded by ocean, is a beautiful, prosperous land where no one ever arrives and no one ever leaves. According to myth, mysterious ocean-dwellers protect the isle, but no one's ever seen them, and seeking to disturb the peace is forbidden.
But Kevane, the newest and youngest Lord of Skiy, can't help asking questions. And he isn't the only one. His outwardly tidy household minister Rill possesses radical tendencies and a family secret. Kev's mother refuses to share what she knows. And the sea-folk have their own reasons for guarding this particular island.
Together, Kev and Rill will uncover the truth of a legend, fall in love, and change two worlds: sea and Skiy.
