Description

At twenty-five, Sai keeps his family’s teahouse running and cares for his ailing mother—while quietly making a living with a rare gift: he can see the red threads of fate between soulmates. Content to ignore his own fraying, gray thread, he’s thrown off course when a doctor sells him a pair of shining dragon scales, promising a miracle cure that seems too good to be true. When the medicine works, a ruthless emperor takes notice, and Sai is pulled into a dangerous hunt for a dragon long thought extinct—one that could ignite war and carry him across unfamiliar borders. Blending Chinese mythic wonder with propulsive fantasy adventure, this debut explores destiny versus choice, the cost of power, and the longing to understand who—or what—waits at the end of the thread.
