"Readers who enjoy folkloric fiction will find this Micronesian-based story highly entertaining." - Kirkus Reviews
A compelling tale of family, faith, and ancient spirits, where a young boy gifted with the sacred light of the CHamoru makåna must fight to protect his soul from the darkness that hungers for it.
The CHamoru makåna were powerful healers from a time long forgotten. For centuries, their spirits waited for one destined to carry their sacred light.
When Mateo is born, he inherits the gifts of the makåna. But the light of his ancestors does not go unnoticed by dark, ancient forces.
As Mateo’s extraordinary abilities grow, so does the threat from sinister spirits intent on exploiting his gifts. Shadows stalk his every step, haunting him and tormenting those he holds dear.
In time, it becomes painfully clear that the path to Mateo's destiny will take him into a darkness beyond the veil of death. Can faith and the light of his ancestors sustain him, or will the forces that seek to consume his soul ultimately prevail?
