If everyone you grew up with were relying on you to save them, would you be able to do it? Thrust into the deep end, teen Aldora Leoma has to do exactly that. Her village under attack, she is asked by the king to locate the just stolen Dagger of Protection - one of six Weapons of Protection made centuries earlier to protect others. With nobody else near enough to protect her home, Aldora can't say no. Aided by a talking prince of the cats and a law enforcer hunting a murderer, failure is not an option.
