Growing up in a lighthouse, 11-year-old Pet's world has been one of storms, secret
tunnels, and stories about sea monsters. But now the country is at war and the
clifftops are a terrifying battleground. Pet will need to muster all her bravery to
uncover why her family is being torn apart.
This is the story of a girl who is afraid and unnoticed. A girl who freezes with fear at
the enemy planes ripping through the skies overheard. A girl who is somehow
destined to become part of the strange, ancient legend of the Daughters of Stone.
