Synopsis

Hawkthorn's underground tunnels are heaving with secrets but that's not all they're hiding.
Twelve-year-old eco-activist turned detective Ava Frylander doesn't remember falling over the cliffs into the raging waterfall at Laureleaf Park. All she knows is, Tony is dead and it wasn't an accident.
She braves Hawkthorn's grungy underground tunnels, where, according to local legend, souls of the recently departed roam - hoping to conjure her best friend's ghost and identify his killer.
There she spies spectral thugs dressed in old-timey clothes before being chased out by a groaning black shadow.
When she's chased off by a groaning black shadow, Ava manages to escape, but she's not the only one who emerges from the tunnels.

    A middle grade faith-building fantasy adventure from the bestselling Dragons in Our Midst story world.

In King Arthur's Camelot where dragons are outlawed, a poor apprentice boy and a dragon-raised orphan girl unravel an evil plot to exterminate dragons from this world and the next.


Hawk spends his days trying to survive as a lowly apprentice in the harsh employ of Master Andrew—a sly shopkeeper making illegal bargains with dragons. But when Master Andrew is hired by Lady Morgan to cheat the dragon Clefspeare out of his promised gemstone payment, Hawk's faith in God spurs him to action.


Sabina hasn't had contact with humans in years, not since the kind-hearted dragon Legossi rescued her from the ruins of her burned village. But the forest is no place for a young girl to come of age, so Legossi agrees to have a knight take Sabina to Lady Morgan's estate. Yet Sabina quickly realizes Lady Morgan has a sinister scheme to wipe out dragons in this realm and beyond. Can Hawk and Sabina warn the dragons and foil Lady Morgan's plans before it's too late?
