The Lost City Amanda Hocking

Welcome to a world in the shadow of our own, a fairytale land where the dangers are very real - Ulla Tulin is desperate to find her real parents and unlock her half-blood heritage. But her journey will be far more perilous than she could have imagined and far more rewarding than she could have dreamed.

Ulla Tulin was abandoned in an isolated Kanin town as a baby. Taken in by strangers and raised hidden away, like many half-blood trolls, she has never stopped searching for her parents.

When Ulla hears of a project to help half-blood trolls, in the beautiful city of Merellä, she seizes the chance to discover her true heritage. She enlists the help of Pan Soriano, who is both handsome and resourceful – a half-human with telekinesis powers. She must also contend with Eliana, a mysterious girl who claims she's being pursued. Though Ulla suspects there's rather more to the story.

Ulla and Pan work to unravel the truth about themselves and Eliana. But in the process, they realise that someone – or something – is determined to stop them. They face a force that will do anything to keep certain secrets - but can she unlock the secrets of her past?
