Soledad is a victim of the Phoenix's evil plagues, just like the rest of her village. But she's also different. She has her mother's flute, which the Phoenix is determined to find. After a friend's betrayal, she flees along a new path, high into the mountains, where she discovers what really happened to her people. And she realizes her knowledge, together with the power of the water and the magic of the flute, can help them all. But this realization brings a whole new danger. Before she can unite her people and face the Phoenix and his mind-numbed servants, she'll have to find the strength to forgive and learn again how to trust.
