This is a fascinating work of non-fiction that melds both autobiographical and biographical true-life stories. The primary-source social history of southwestern Ontario provides the backdrop to the author's search for her birth families while she coped with childhood trauma and fear. As the action rises, so too does the unfolding in a blow-by-blow account of her younger life and the resultant, very unexpected, joy she is finally able to embrace.

It's the year 2040, and sixteen-year-old Dez Harkly is one of the last of her kind-part of a nearly extinct race of shape-shifters descended from guardians to the Egyptian pharaohs. Her home and her secret are threatened when the Council lowers the barrier, allowing the enemy race to enter the Shythe haven. As the Narcolym airships approach, Dez and her friends rebel against their Council and secretly train for battle. Not only is Dez wary of war and her growing affection for her best friend Jace, she fears the change her birthday will bring. When Dez's newfound power rockets out of control, it's a Narcolym who could change her fate...if she can trust him. Dez's guarded world crumbles when she discovers why the Narcos have really come to Haven Falls, and she's forced to choose between the race who raised her and the enemy she's feared her whole life.
