Evil Solovar has cursed this place with everlasting misery. 3. The rare (and breakable) Crystal Egg—which can answer ONE question—is waiting to be found. Ava is really excited about #1. She wants to help fix #2, but then she learns her father is here, and without phones or internet, the only way to find him is with #3.

With a little help from her friends, Owen and William, Ava sets off on a quest to find the Egg. But if she finds it, Ava will have to choose: break the curse—for everyone, or … reunite herself with her father.
