The love of daughter for father—what could be more beautiful? Or dangerous, if shown in the wrong way? Little Jink, the amazing elf-child of High One Timmain and the stargazer Skywise, did something innocent yet unexpected, and her sire went missing. He's nowhere to be found on the world of the Star Home—he could be anywhere in the infinite cosmos, lost to all. Now Jink, grown into an amazing young woman, must set out on her own quest to find her father and correct her childish mistake . . . if that is even possible.
