Jack Tamerlaine has spent ten years on the mainland, but when young girls begin vanishing from the magical isle of Cadence, he is summoned home by his childhood enemy Adaira, who believes only a bard's music can persuade the island's capricious spirits — fire, water, earth, and wind — to return them.
