Raf's sister lies dying from a terrible disease that has no known cure. Then he learns that trolls living on the forbidden Troll Mountain possess a healing elixir that could save her life. The mountain rises like a fortress from the dark lands, its highest tower heavily guarded by creatures that have never shown mercy to humans. Raf knows the odds against him. An entire mountain of trolls stands between him and the medicine his sister needs. But he cannot watch her die without trying. He sets out alone on the dangerous climb, moving through troll territory where discovery means death. Every step takes him deeper into enemy lands and closer to the tower that holds his sister's only hope. This is a story about the lengths one person will go to save someone they love.
