Touchstone. Shards Of Fate

Kyla's magical Touch often lands her in trouble - but nothing compares to the firestorm that erupts when her estranged sister calls a meeting out of the blue. The reason? Their father lies dying in the hospital from a mysterious illness, the truth behind their sudden reunion a deadly secret neither of them can escape: an anonymous blackmailer calls, giving Kyla five days to find the magical, mythical, possibly non-existent Touchstone - or her father dies.
Yeah, her father's illness? Not so mysterious after all. Alone in a city full of people she'd desperately prefer not to kill, and allies she insists she doesn't need, Kyla must race against the clock to find the Touchstone before anyone else can. And before the corpses start racking up.  Oh wait. It's too late for that. A twisty, richly imagined urban fantasy from Aurealis award-winning author Amy Laurens, don't miss this standalone in an all-new world inspired by The Snow Queen fairytale!
