Synopsis

How far would you go to fit in? Outsiders Harou and Fiall both find themselves independently falling into the graces of Clan leader Arrwolen; a beauty-obsessed lissa with flowers in his hair and a loyal group of followers. While life in clan Glittering Scallops is lush, what goes on under the surface is more than meets the eye. Getting out might be far more difficult than getting in.
