After the harrowing and life-changing events at the Dragons Gate, Bren wants nothing more than to make his way back to England. Finding the answers to the great mysteries hed been chasing only found him questioning why hed ever pursued them in the first place, and now hes lost his best friend, forever. Theres nothing left for him but to return home and hope his father hasnt given up on him.
But just because Bren is done with adventure does not mean adventure is done with him. On his way to escape from China, Bren is gifted a rare artifact, with a connection to a place no one has set foot upon. Soon hes fallen in with a mysterious Indian noblewoman bent on discovering an ancient power and leading her country against colonial rule.
