A brave mouse attempts to rebuild a fallen empire in this second book
of the epic Mouseheart series set in the subway tunnels of Brooklyn, and
for "fans of Erin Hunter, Brian Jacques, and Kathryn Lasky" (School
Library Journal).
The battle to free Titus's camps is over, and Hopper, Zucker, Firren,
and their loyal followers are working to rebuild. But the tunnels are in
a state of chaos, and without the sinister peace accord to protect the
rodents, Queen Felina and her growing army of ferals is a greater threat
than ever before.
In the Mūs Village, Pinkie has led a coup and is now ruling with an iron
paw. And Pup has become cold and defiant, a change that Hopper never saw
coming.
When exterminators raid the tunnels, Hopper is snatched away by the
intruders and taken back up to the daylight world where he was born.
Upland, Hopper makes new allies, and as he enjoys the sights and sounds
of Brooklyn, he wonders if he will ever make it back into the tunnels to
restore safety and prosperity, as foretold by La Rocha's prophecy.
But why should Hopper fulfill a destiny he never wanted in the first
place?
