This second Mysteries of Cove book brings Trenton and Kallista to dragon-ravaged Seattle in search of Kallista's inventor father. They're imprisoned by the dragon-worshipping Order of the Beast, then freed by the technocratic Whipjacks, led by Fagan-esque Cochrane. Double-crosses, dragon attacks, steampunk flourishes, and emotional reunions bring imaginative detail to a familiar fantasy story line.
