Since the death of her father, fourteen-year-old Anri has struggled to help her family survive. Despite her best efforts, they're driven to the brink of losing everything when a wealthy customer demands payment for an accident that wasn't their fault.
When Anri learns that the dragonholds give money to the families of riders, she's determined to find a dragon egg, join their ranks, and save her family.
Only it turns out that finding a dragon egg is a lot harder than it sounds. Especially with a mischievous baby kisnit getting in the way and giant cave monsters attacking from the shadows.
With Hatching Day only weeks away, and Anri almost too old to bond with a hatchling, will she find an elusive dragon egg in time? Or will she end up working for a corrupt man for the rest of her life?
