The Master Traveler

Ema Moreau is a teenage girl who does not have much but might just lose the most important thing she has left--her younger sister, Silver. Silver is sick and getting worse each day, but luckily, she is the next on a list to receive a miraculous cure from a flower that can be used to treat any ailment. Unfortunately, soldiers from the kingdom have come and claimed that they will be retrieving the flower used to make the medicine for the king. In desperation, Ema takes the chance to make it to the flower first. Others from the village, who were originally planning to help make the medicine for Silver, now can see the chance to use the flower for their own purposes instead.



While traveling, Ema is tracked down by a mysterious boy named Rainald. He is clever and sneaky, and he seems to know a lot about her. Though wanting the miracle flower for himself, Rainald proposes that working together will increase the odds that one of them will end up with the flower. Though Ema does not like the proposition, she has no other choice but to agree.



As the two travel and escape dangerous circumstances, they even begin to become friends, something that Ema does not know much about either. As they become close, Rainald remains very protective of his plans, identity, and even information on Ema's own tragic past. Has she finally found someone who is willing to help her? Or should she be vigilant to the threat that Rainald really is just keeping her around as long as it benefits him? Nothing is certain, except that Ema is not going to be the same person at the end of this journey as when she began.
