A year after restoring the balance of good and evil to the magical Land of the Keepers, young Sara, James, and Thomas are laying low-living separately to protect them from the vanquished members of Garren that they helped defeat.

But as she begins to use them, the powers run amok, leaving a trail of freak snowstorms and record heat waves. Meanwhile, people around them are mysteriously disappearing-simply vanishing into thin air. Now, the three of them must reunite in the Land of the Keepers to learn to control their awesome powers and fix whatever is stealing people away.

The battle is just beginning; and before it is over, someone will have to pay a very high price to keep several worlds safe. Packed with adventure, this second entry in The Sara Chronicles is a fast-paced and savvy fantasy thriller that will keep you guessing right up until the shocking finale.

She swam up the stream to hear him sing, then one day he swam down it and was never seen again. He became one of the Mer people! Sapphire's father told her that story when she was little. When he is lost at sea she can't help but think of that old myth; she's convinced he's still alive. The following summer her brother Conor keeps disappearing for hours on end. She goes to the cove to find him, but instead meets Faro, an enigmatic and intriguing Merman. He takes her to Ingo and introduces her to a world she never knew existed. She must let go of all her Air thoughts and embrace the sea and all things Mer. After her first visit she is entranced -- merely the sound of running water makes her yearn to be in Ingo once more.
