Her boat. An ocean of sand to cross. Norah's desert world has always been treacherous, with the roiling ocean of sand, giant scorpions, and brutal sandstorms-but now an unnatural famine plagues the desert nations and threatens to destroy all. Despite being the only one in her village without a sand gift, Norah is chosen with her best friend, Zadock, to sail across the ocean of sand in search of the legendary moonstone, an artifact that could end the famine. As Norah and Zadock set off on their journey, secret romantic feelings each has suppressed for years rise to the surface.
