Series currently consists of:
Frostbitten Past is book one. Golden Prophecy is book two. Ashen Rise is book three.
Andorra is haunted by the shadows in her backyard and the eerie house she now lives in. The frigid air in her new town is almost as cold as the students in her school, and something is chasing her – she just doesn’t know what.
In this tale of a girl who is not who she thinks she is, Andorra seeks solace in those who do not always have her best interest at heart. And in the end, it may just destroy her.
