Life is like a thundercloud. However dark it gets, there's a silver lining of hope. NOTE: This book was previously published as part of the megabook Silver and Gold.My silver lining snapped like a frayed thread before school even started this year.My awful family put my boyfriend in intensive care. I can't blame his parents for moving out of town. We're all still recovering from losing a beloved friend.On top of that, we've picked up huge new clues on our quest. Our lead points to an island locked in an endless cycle of war. Whether it's full of enemies or allies remains to be seen. I suspect a little of both, and my faerie contacts aren't telling me anything that will help.Can I prepare for a new challenge when even the faerie monarchs can't say what it is?
