This novel chronicles the journey of an adolescent girl, from her living innocently in a virtual paradise to leading an army in a rebellion. The fantasy story line features dragons and their people, who possess magical powers to make and control fire. At its core, though, this story is about a group of young adults who struggle to do the right thing when confronted by unspeakable evil. The lead character, Rose, endures physical hardships and both mental and emotional anguish on her journey. Throughout the journey, one question persists: Can she save her kind by betraying them? In the same way that Rose is called to Dragons Nest to fulfill her destiny, we each are called to stop oppression, discrimination, and exclusion.

As a human chameleon, emotions trigger a transformation into the visage of whomever she sees. But when her foster parents die in a crash and she’s taken captive by so-called scientists, she’s not sure if she’s human or just a freak of nature.
