White lies and good intentions have paved the way for Laela's untamed magic to bleed into the land, resurrecting a terrible power intent on vengeance. Haunted by dreams of a skeletal tree, Laela lives on the outskirts of a village shrouded in secrets. Her mother died hoping to free Laela from a life of duty. Instead, she denied her the chance to know the magic of her bloodline - and the reality of the horrors they were tasked to guard. And eventually, all secrets demand to be heard. When her dark and violent history begins to unravel, Laela must reclaim her magic - and uncover the truth of her origin - before the mist and wickedness destroy everything she loves. But Laela's path is steeped in betrayal, and overcoming evil may not be as easy as killing it... Twisted Roots is a dark contemporary fantasy, which weaves together the stories of Laela and her vengeful counterpart, the Witch, in a story of redemption and compassion.
