Bea and Carter Kingsley's parents went missing 12 years ago while trying to uncover the mysteries of the mythical Saurmen and their keystones, which grant the owner tremendous power over all types of saurs. The clues in their parents' journals have led them to the Yucatan Peninsula, acquiring a troublesome Brachiosaur on their travels as well as Carter's pet Black Dwarf Tyrant, Buster. Meanwhile the villainous Viscount and his associates are also in the area, consorting with rebels plotting to overthrow the government and bankrolling a secret operation in the depths of the rainforests.

Calypso's mom died a few years ago and her emotionally incompetent Dad can't, or won't, talk about Mom at all. Instead he throws himself into writing his History of the Lemon. Meanwhile, the house is dusty, there's never any food in the fridge, and Calypso's grief has made her retreat from everyone and everything into a world of books. When a new girl, Mae, arrives at school, the girls' shared love of reading and writing stories draws them close. Mae's friendship and her lively and chaotic house—where people argue and hug each other—makes Calypso feel more normal, and more wanted, than she has for a long time. But when Calypso finally plucks up the courage to invite Mae over to her house, things go unexpectedly, disastrously wrong as she discovers a shocking truth about her Dad, and his magnum opus. A poignant story about the magic of reading and friendship.
