Born of the elusive Oskoro people, the body is a rare and priceless find, the center of a tragic tale and the key to a larger mystery. But as she investigates who the body was meant for, Driwna finds herself on a path paved by deceit and corruption--and it will lead her to an evil more powerful than she can possibly imagine."--Publisher.
