The Silent Isle

FEAR HAS A HOME… Since its discovery, the island of Haven and its ore-rich mines have kept House Hallander from being overrun by the larger, wealthier houses of the Draconian mainland. But Haven is not the godsend it seemed. The last ship to reach Hallander's harbor from Haven carries no ore but only a single passenger—a dying old man with a strange mark burned in his forehead. His final words: "They sent me." Dane, Lord Hallander's only surviving son, immediately launches a rescue mission as an attempt to atone for a choice that still haunts him. But what waits for Dane on Haven is darker than his past and more powerful than any foe he's faced on the battlefield. If he is to succeed, he'll need to find an ally in the last person on Earth who would want to help him, the mysterious slave girl Mirela. But getting too close to her may mean giving up any hope of returning home. Once on Haven, they discover the colony deserted, its pantry stocked, its buildings undamaged, and not a soul in sight. At least not any soul they would want to meet. A fantasy tale full of supernatural suspense, The Silent Isle will keep you reading late into the night and introduce you to characters and questions that will hold your imagination long after you finish the last page.
