One-sentence summary for new WIP

So, while I’m in the re-write of Gift of the Ancients, I’ve had my next novel somewhat on my mind. I plan to do Nanowrimo again this year, and I’d like to have a better fleshed-out Snowflake to work with this time.

The story is called Windsinger, and I began it when I was about 15. The basic plot is clear to me, but it needs fleshing out. Step one of the Snowflake is to write a one-sentence summary of the novel, which gets used extensively in marketing the idea/book so you want to make it good. Randy Ingermanson has been critiquing one-sentence summaries on his inestimable Advanced Fiction Writing blog, and you can join the fun!

I already posted the one-sentence for Gift of the Ancients, here’s a stab at the one for Windsinger:

An outcast girl discovers her true identity, but can her power overthrow an ancient tyrant?
