The Pattern Scars

Nola is born into poverty in Sarsenay City. When her mother realizes

that Nola has the gift of Othersight and can foretell the future, she

sells her to a brothel seer, who teaches the girl to harness her gift.

As she grows up, she embraces her new life, and even finds a small

circle of friends. All too soon, her world is again turned upside down

when one of them is murdered. When a handsome, young Otherseer from the

castle promises to teach her, she eagerly embraces the prospects of

luxury beyond what she can imagine and safety from a killer who stalks

girls by night. Little does she know that he will soon draw her into a

web of murder, treachery, and obsessive desire that will threaten the

people and land she holds dear, and that she will soon learn the

harshest of lessons: that being able to predict the future has nothing

to do with being able to prevent it.
