Daughter of Light (Follower of the Word series, Book 1)

By Morgan L. Busse

Description:

What if with one touch you could see inside the soul?

As the Shadonae rise in the west and war threatens the north, a young woman discovers she is not human . . .

Rowen Mar finds a strange mark on her hand, and she is banished from her village as a witch. She covers the mark with a leather glove and seeks sanctuary in the White City. She lives in fear that if she touches another person, the power inside her will trigger again, a terrifying power that allows her to see the darkness inside the human heart . . .

But the mark is a summons, and those called cannot hide forever.

Why the author wrote this book:

It is not easy to follow God, especially when he gives you a hard path to follow. I wrote this book as a reflection of my own faith: the conflict between the desire to follow God and the desire for a normal, simple life. In the end when we let God have his way, he will use us in more ways than we could possibly imagine.
