But how will James cope with this new responsibility, and how will he respond when his girlfriend Chloe is in trouble?

Have you ever heard of the Elementals, magical spirits of Fire, Water, Earth and Air? I hadn’t. I still wouldn’t have, if my little sister Rachel hadn’t knocked her latest toy into the fire. Okay, so it never would have happened if Mike and I hadn’t been playing piggy-in-the-middle with her and her stupid little trinket. But how was I to know the Elementals were imprisoned inside? Or that once it cracked open, our house was going to become Elemental Central?Not your usual problem, you'll admit. Tricky, even. Likely to displease mum and dad, if they find out. Which I hope they don't - especially since Mike has been using the Elementals to get revenge on teachers. Not a great idea, as it turns out. And it’s not like we didn’t have enough trouble already, what with the trinket’s original owner wanting to get it back, and not caring who gets hurt in the process.Sometimes, I wish I’d done what I wanted to do that first night when the house went crazy – packed my bags and headed for the horizon.

John Marshall is a dreamer. Undeniably gifted, he graduates a year early from college. His future might not be set in stone, but it is hardly uncertain. But somewhere in his subconscious, his soul searches for something meaningful; something to exhilarate him. Stressors in his life and a defiant spirit fuel a drive to escape and so he sets in motion a plan that is characteristically daring. Unbeknownst to his parents who think he’s doing an internship out west, he empties his bank account and flies to Europe by himself. Surprisingly, the plan goes off without a hitch. But even a meticulous planner like John Marshall can’t anticipate what awaits him when he reaches France. For it is there that he meets Katie and her rag-tag posse of like-minded youth. Radicalized by grave environmental injustices they observe in the world, they see the need for global change, and resolve to be the catalyst for that change. It sounds naïve. But these are no ordinary college kids. Their resources are enormous, their network of contacts spans the continent, their methods are sophisticated and anonymous, and their skills are terrifying. Before long, John is drawn into Katie’s noble crusade to rid the world of corruption. Together, they embark on an adventure as outlandish as it is vital… and come face to face with a malevolence John could never have imagined.
