She died on a Tuesday.
She woke up in a world at war.
When Keira Altman's car plunges off a rain-slicked bridge, her last thoughts are of her mother.
She never expected to wake up.
She definitely never expected to wake up in Loren, a land where magic moves through breath and will, where political tensions are tipping toward open violence, and where an ancient order called the Legion of Pneumos claims she belongs.
Desperate to find a way home, Keira must master powers she never asked for in a world she never chose. But the Legion doesn't grant answers for free.
And the price of getting home might be everything she's only just begun to want.

A Fierce, Flawed Heroine
Keira didn't ask for any of this. She died, woke up somewhere else, and had to decide whether to fight for a world that isn't hers. Watch her struggle, fail, and earn every step forward.
Chaos-Fueled Magic System
Pneumonancy is magic woven through breath and will. Every use has a cost. Every choice has consequences.
Romance That Earns It
Danny is Keira's grounder, trusted with keeping her tethered while she learns to use her power. What grows between them can't be rushed, because the magic won't let it. Trust first . . . then everything else.
Political Intrigue & Moral Complexity
The Legion isn't purely good. The rebels aren't purely evil. Navigate a world painted in shades of gray.
The Story
Keira Altman was supposed to be starting college. Instead, she's starting a new life she never asked for in a world she doesn't understand.
Torn from everything familiar, Keira awakens in Loren, a land where breath is power and political tensions are spilling toward open war. The Legion of Pneumos, an ancient order that channels chaos itself to hold the world together, believes Keira has a role in what's coming. She just has to survive long enough to find out what it is . . . and decide whether she wants it.
Her grounder is Danny O'Leary, a Legion trainee with a steadiness she didn't expect and a past he keeps to himself. Learning to trust him isn't optional: the magic that might get her home only works when the grounder-cantor bond holds. And Keira has spent her whole life not trusting anyone.
She didn't choose this world. She's not sure she wants to stay.
The problem is she's not sure she wants to leave, either.
What Readers Are Saying
Perfect For Readers Who Love:
"As an ER physician and military officer, I've seen what it costs to make impossible choices under pressure. The Cantor is where Keira's journey (and mine) began. I wanted to write about a girl who isn't special because of destiny, but because of what she chooses to do when everything is taken from her."
