Lind'sei Baydridge has been plagued by feverish rage, night terrors and crushing loneliness ever since her father was brutally murdered. He never taught her to keep her H'arian beast at bay, and now her rage is threatening to swallow her. Lind'sei isn't the only one who has experienced loss, though. Help comes unexpected when a group of swords for hire track her down and start asking questions about her most recent violent outburst. Trying to still the voices in her head, she set out to find some answers, only to find more questions. "There is evil within you," someone once told her. It turns out they were right . . . Awakenings is the first book in The Fall of Noman series, which will span five or six books. It details the 'awakening' of Lind'sei, as it were, and tells of her struggle to overcome the animal inside. This is a rite of passage for all H'arians, but one she sorely missed out on due to her father's drinking and subsequent murder. All hope seems lost when one of her oldest friends lure her out to the old lighthouse in order to complete a sinister ritual. In the aftermath, Lind'sei finds it impossible to trust anyone, let alone herself. But when a group of swords for hire wants her to join them, another H'arian woman offer her a reprieve from the turmoil inside. Of course, on the journey westward, everything in Lind'sei's life changes forever . . .
