内容简介

Sixteen-year-old Dovella is an engineering apprentice of great potential and talent, though her true vocation is for healing. She is about to go through the most important ceremony of her life, the Rites of the Healer, to join the ranks of the Healer's Guild. But the Village is thrown into turmoil when something goes wrong with the Sacred Machine that supplies electricity. Dovella finds herself faced with a grand dilemma: Only she can undertake the arduous journey to the Source Lake to fix the problem before disaster strikes, but to do so she must miss the long-awaited Rites. Anne Gray lives in Hamilton, Ontario, and has published a number of short stories, including A Pool of Light, which was short-listed for the Ian St. James Award. Rites of the Healer is her first novel.
