Synopsis

Ambre, Jade, and Opale live ordinary lives until, each on her fourteenth birthday, she receives a stone matching her own name — the first sign of an old prophecy stirring back to life. As the three girls are pulled together, they learn their world is threatened by the Council of Twelve, a shadowy power intent on keeping the truth about the prophecy buried.

Written by French author Flavia Bujor when she was only twelve and thirteen years old, the novel blends familiar fantasy staples — good and evil, magical creatures, courtly conflict — into a coherent quest narrative, and became an international bestseller translated into more than twenty languages.

The story follows the three girls as they set out together to unravel the prophecy's meaning, testing their loyalty to one another against the forces working to stop them.
