Dangerous Voice

A Coming-of-age Young Adult Epic Fantasy

Her Singing Voice Is a Dangerous Gift.
Left Untrained, It Can Kill.

Everyone knows that the seventeen-year-old Lanie doesn’t have magic. The leader of the magicians tested her, and she failed. Rejected by the villagers, she lives as an outcast, until a bully threatens her, and her hidden singing magic awakens with deadly power.

Lanie’s first instinct is to dash for the safety of home, as the villagers chase her, wanting to hang her for murder. Her second instinct is to stay at home. Yesterday, she had vowed to search the nearby Spears Marsh for an herb to cure her mom’s dementia. But her aunt insists that Lanie flee their cottage to save herself.

Friendless, she’s on the run, carrying a change of clothes, a little food, and even less money. Somehow, somewhere, Lanie must find teachers to help her control her dangerous voice, before it attacks someone else.

Lanie will find them, but then she’ll face bigger challenges. The voice lessons are real, but the teachers aren’t human!
