It's been one year since the last battle. One year since Dena's death. One year since Elsu's betrayal. One year since Adeline Jasley's whole world changed and transformed into something terrifying - something she didn't recognize. As the Chosen attempt to recover from the events of the past year, Adeline and Cole struggle to connect with one another. Mistrust, lies, and suspicion threaten not only the tribe, but Adeline and Cole's relationship. As the smoke clears and a new normal begins to take root, will there be another fight around the bend? Will Adeline and Cole work together in the light of old enemies? Or will it tear them apart?
