Als Dina’s moeder tijdens een onderzoek naar een moordzaak in de problemen komt, is ze wel verplicht om haar nieuwe gave te aanvaarden... en te gebruiken. Het eerste deel in de reeks De kronieken van de Zieneres, vol levendige personages en met de 11-jarige Dina in een glansrol. Meeslepende lectuur voor iedereen vanaf 10 jaar.

And when he comes to claim the daughter he has never seen, the Shamer and her family are catapulted into reckless flight and danger. With nowhere else to turn, Dina must learn to see through her father's deceit and use her own powers to her advantage."The unique world Kaaberbol has created, her well-developed characters, fast-moving plots, and thoughtful examination of bravery and moral issues put this book, and the series as a whole, in good standing alongside Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy and C. S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia." -Booklist, starred review
