Marama is awakened. Her journey, both spiritual and physical, will traverse the Pacific Ocean and explore the realm of the spirits, where her ancestors dwell. Although her island home is idyllic, its peace is shattered forever, and danger stalks its inhabitants. Her people must fight for survival. They must put their faith in the old ones and their trust in a former enemy. Drawn into the centre of conflict, village politics and an epic voyage, Marama staunchly refuses to be defeated, instead forming an unlikely alliance. Can she find personal happiness again after losing so much? Will they be able to safeguard generations of knowledge from destruction and ensure their ancestors live on? To do so they will need to defeat enemies, respect mother nature, brave the unpredictable ocean and succumb to the schemes of the spirits. Love flourishes in unexpected places, only complicating Marama’s life further.
