When the river spits Umbra onto its bank, naked and shivering, the only clue to her identity is the arcane brand seared into her skin.

A brand that may make her the key to averting all-out war.

The Tree of Souls weaves an intimate tale of dark sorcery, doomed love, and implacable revenge, amid an age-old clash of nations, with all the souls of the living hanging in the balance.
