A wish to go back would unlock more than she expected…For as long as Eutrepe could remember, the Muses had always been sent to help inspire mankind. She longed to go back again, but man had lost his faith. Centuries drifted by and Eutrepe was certain she would never walk among the humans again. The night Zeus summons her for a final task in the mortal world she jumps at the chance. It was a quest she was willing to take, that is, until the interference of a God and her memory is lost. Ceris is a loner and musician. Stuck at an impasse with a song he needs to complete, but cannot, he wonders if the words will be locked inside his soul forever. Sure he will never release his thoughts, he ventures out into the night in hopes of some kind of inspiration. Never in his dreams did he expect it would come in the form of a woman with no memory who nearly dies at the hands of an oncoming car in the dead of night. In order to reveal the song that fills Ceris' soul they must first unlock Euterpe’s past before it’s too late…. Their future is at stake, but first they must beat back the darkness before it time is up.

This book is the first of a series in which young readers are introduced to different occupations - and potential careers! - through the vehicle of a precocious preteen private investigator, Kit Dreamer. With the help of her best friend, a Meerkat given to her by her globe-trotting father, Kit is on the case. In her first case, Kit investigates whether a lemur who is suspected of stealing is actually a thief - or whether the suspicion should be turned on a different, four-legged troublemaker. Throughout the investigation, Kit is exposed to several terms that will likely be new to younger readers, terms like: court, lawyer, not guilty, and jury. Through rich illustrations, Kit's unusual world of talking large animals - which may or may not be a dreamworld - is brought to life to the delight of readers young and old.""
