He trolls the stone walls of En Tutum, a luxurious rustic tourist attraction that doubles as his prison, a place he is forbidden to leave. Suddenly he hears a faint whisper, "Mother," as a jeep pulls into the property, and something inside him changes. He senses a magical presence. Augustus dares to hope, this visitor may be the key to answering the prayers his soul has sought.

With no cellphone service to call her family, she decides to brave the forest alone until she reaches the next town.Can Selina take the word of a cursed man? And does she truly have the magical gifts, he's willing to risk his life for?
