A Talisman Arcane

This is an Apple Books audiobook narrated by a digital voice based on a human narrator.

She makes friends where others make enemies. Can her odd talent for compassion prevent a massacre?

Young Lealle craves freedom and challenge. Raised to honor conventional goals and adopt a prim demeanor, the spirited teen fights to discern her own destiny. But when a horde of bullies trap her in a garden-flanked back alley, she flees—scared and furious—into an abandoned mansion.

Stumbling across an injured troll-witch there, Lealle can't believe she feels sympathy for this most dangerous foe. And when the witch persuades the girl to a vow of secrecy, Lealle fears her silence threatens family, friends—everyone—with catastrophic violence.

Can Lealle convince the troll-witch to come out of hiding before her mistakes kill those Lealle loves?
