From the author of the Pegasus series comes the second book in a
spellbinding fantasy series for fans of Rick Riordan and Shannon
Messenger, in which Riley's return home is short-lived and full of
unforeseen danger.
Riley thought that her adventure was over when she arrived back home in
Colorado. Although she misses her dad, she's back with her mom and
brother and has caught up with her classes at school. Though Maggie,
Pea, and her aunt have to hide in their basement apartment during the
day, they are making the most of things and settling into their new
life.
But things get much more complicated when a gang of thieves plagues
Riley's neighborhood and her family takes in a group of children who
don't know about the Atlanteans living in the basement. To make matters
worse, the Atlanteans are becoming gravely ill, and everyone starts to
worry that they may not be able to survive so far from the island's
magic.
As tensions escalate, their only option is to return to Atlantis--and
face all the enemies they made during their escape, plus a few new ones.
