Zadie was born in the forest and abandoned...until Tolbalth, a stern and terrifying dragon shapeshifter found her and raised her as his own daughter. Zadie is not an average teenager. She can communicate with wild animals, her best friend is a white tiger, and she is discovering her own magical powers-powers that she keeps a secret from her father because he loathes witches. Tolbalth, the Destroyer of Men, is a fierce dragon-man shapeshifter who raises and trains Zadie to be a warrior and the protector, even if it means killing someone. But Zadie believes that all life must be preserved at any cost, even the lives of their worst enemies.
