When Hollyleaf disappeared in the tunnels by the lake, ThunderClan believed she was lost to them forever. But her adventure was only beginning. Lost and lonely, Hollyleaf soon meets a mysterious cat named Fallen Leaves, who teaches her how to live in the tunnels. But Hollyleaf can't help wondering if leaving her Clanmates was the right choice. She knows she's a ThunderClan cat at heart, but can she ever truly go back?
