Synopsis

In this quiet town, a magic awakens . . .

Thirteen-year-old Yumna lives in a sleepy town where nothing ever happens. So when her friends start sneaking into the woods at night, curiosity gets the better of her and she follows. There, she discovers something unbelievable. Kareem can turn into a golden horse. Sami can touch fire without burning. Even her cousin Nafisa has a strange new power. Everyone’s changing . . . except Yumna.

But when Kareem vanishes and a mysterious new family, the Maidstones, seem to be hiding something, Yumna is the only one asking the right questions. As secrets unravel and danger creeps closer, it’s up to Yumna to rally her friends and uncover the truth.

In a town full of secrets and powers, can one ordinary girl become the hero they all need?
