Haunted by his lost love, he heads deep into the forest chasing rumours of giant trees and large wolves; where he finds a hidden village. He soon discovers that not is all as it seems and the Reds are keeping secrets not only from him, but from some of their own. The Grandmother doesn’t have the control she thinks she does and her favourite granddaughter may just be tearing the tribe apart rather than making it stronger. There is more hidden in trees than Iski is prepared for. And there may be more than their way of life in danger. less

A giant heart beats in a little chest, it travelled there via the raven west. Dark salmon scales may mark the way, but amongst the wolves it shall stay. Iski Flare is commissioned by a King to find his lost sons. Now he is following the youngest prince on his quest to save a princess from a heartless giant. Armed with a new sword and a map he isn’t very sure of; the only clues they have to follow are wrapped up in a riddle that may hide more than it tells... moreA giant heart beats in a little chest, it travelled there via the raven west.
