Publisher's Synopsis
"Be careful what you say. Words have power." Kady can't remember a time in her life when she wasn't hiding. From someone or something, but she's never been sure the cause of the secrecy. Auntie, her only companion and the only person she trusts, says that words have power, and she can't tell Kady what they are hiding from. Only that the two of them must stick together and stay under the radar. When Kady awakens in the middle of the night with her house crumbling around her, Auntie hustles her into the night and tries to protect her -- through words, magic words. While Auntie succeeds in hiding Kady, she falls victim to the mage who has been searching for them the past 10 years. Kady knows that she must find her aunt and save her. But will she be able to tap the power trapped within her to do it? This is part one of a four-part series. Kady's story continues in subsequent books.
