During the plague of 1262, Minty Nothingmore contracts the Pox at her birth. Her mother dies from it only hours later, singing lullabies for Minty to her last breath. The ancient woman named Granny Shin holds a milk-soaked rag for Minty to suckle.

No one else expects the infant to survive. No baby with plague had before, but Minty Nothingmore is no ordinary baby. She lives.

Granny sends Minty to the orphanage with a letter that will shake the world and save every person on the little island of Rocky Cove.

12 years later…

Minty Nothingmore, age twelve, requires only a few things to be happy. Order. Cleanliness. Predictability. Unfortunately, she lives in an orphanage with thirteen other children and Mr. Blick, who doesn’t understand the complexities of a broom. She works all day to keep everything dusted, swept, mopped and perfectly aligned.

She knows nothing of the empires, pirates, slave-traders, plagues and hurricanes that threaten her little, organized world. Soon, the dangerous world will close in around her. Hopefully, the world survives.

The earth is filled with a million islands. Rocky Cove is just a small, insignificant one that doesn’t show up on any of the maps. Soon, it will become the most important of all.
