A summer visiting grandma turns into an epic life-or-death
middle-grade adventure about twin brothers who must use their wits to
keep the god of the sea from sinking their city.
Rise, the ocean rise,
Rise and greet the shore,
With red and bread, he feeds on the dead
And meets you at the door.
In Allison K. Hymas's Secrets of Stone and Sea, twelve-year-old
identical twins Peter and Kai are spending the summer in the town of
Seaspire when ancient legends quickly pit the boys against a furious sea
creature with the power to destroy worlds and sink cities. To prevent it
from drowning the entire town of Seaspire, they'll have to solve a set
of codes and puzzles with ties to the lost city of Atlantis.
