About the book: year / Before Sadie died, she begged her sister Ruby to do what she could never do on her own: find the treasure on the Isle of the Gray Wolves Volkov. Guided only by a mysterious treasure map, Ruby reluctantly allowed some friends to join her quest to find those touched by magic: a boy supposedly born of a maiden, a girl who never sleeps, a youth who foresees his own death, and a young man deeply connected to island. Each of them also holds a secret - something they will need to put in order to get to the treasure. As secrets unfold, Ruby will have to decide: Can she come to terms with her friends' troubled past and continue to trust them? Will she be able to forgive herself for doing the unthinkable? Deep in the wilds of Gray Wolf Island, Ruby's choices will determine what they do with the treasure—or, for that matter, their lives. From writer Tracy Nethercott's debut comes a compelling, dark tale of loyal friendship, adventure, and the search for strength to tell the truth..
