Book 3 of the SECRETS trilogy.
Some secrets build walls of isolation that are broken only when spoken…
When Carson agreed to take on the trio’s third summer mystery, he had no idea what dangerous adventures it would bring. Withholding the time and place from his friend, Levi and cousin, Emma was wrong, but Carson did not want to risk their refusal. In his mind, the decision to time travel to a place not found on Earth’s atlas, was the right thing to do. Upon the trio’s arrival, they meet a thirteen year- old girl named Alina, who calls herself the guardian of Labora. Their investigation becomes a rescue mission against time, against century old evils, and against horrors living within a treacherous world where inhabitants consider the Trio intruders. Their quest to save Labora presents them with only two outcomes… do or die.
