All the Scattered Stars

Beschreibung:

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The glitter of Venice's lights hides a dark truth: when the floodwaters rise, no one is safe. Koru knows better than to trust anyone but her own. Hidden deep in the winding twists of Venice's narrow alleys, Koru and her found family must disguise themselves to survive. They are Rhunlokni, an ethnic minority gifted with the ability to channel the power of the Earth, their Goddess. They have long been vilified and prosecuted for their strange abilities-and Koru's gift is the strongest of her generation. So when the police arrive in St. Mark's Square to arrest Koru for a crime she didn't commit, she does the only thing she can-she runs. Though Koru manages to escape the police, a larger threat is drawing near. Koru must figure out what the Goddess is trying to tell her, protect those she loves, and uncover the truth of her past before it's too late-because Venice is sinking. Tonight.
