Synopsis
Just before Tristan returns for his second year at the Lair, he wakes to the smell of smoke. His house is on fire, and he suspects Darla Merridy is involved. His professors think otherwise. Accused once again of arson, Tristan is certain someone is targeting their school. For some reason, groups of mountaineers have suddenly begun leading tours through their valley—in the dead of winter. And Zeke’s home mysteriously disappeared in a mudslide over the summer. But no one listens to him. Meanwhile, classes have begun, and this time Tristan and Amber are learning to use the Map Room themselves. Amidst a flurry of arguments and anger, the students are forced to reconcile themselves with the school’s dark purpose. Yet something is lurking in the forest nearby, and it won’t stay hidden forever. As the future heads of the school, Tristan and Amber have to make a choice. Should they leave the school vulnerable? Or should they take control of the Map Room and cause a bit of havoc of their own?

À propos de l?auteur
R.J. Vickers has been writing since the age of 7, when she penned a story about her cat, Shadow, getting lost in an ice cave in Alaska. A year later she wrote about two unicorns who went questing through a cave, and shortly after that, about a girl who got transported into a magical realm through--you guessed it!--a cave. Things are different now that she's an adult. Her current teen fantasy series, The Natural Order, is set in a *very fancy* cave. With marble floors and secret tunnels and glowing patterns on the walls. Maybe it was her secret obsession with caves (what would a psychologist say about that?) which led her to New Zealand, the land of hobbits and hobbit-holes. But the country comes with more than one benefit! When she's not exploring caves (literally or literature-ly), she loves crocheting, baking, and hiking with her husband. R.J. Vickers is hard at work on the second book in the Natural Order series, titled Rogue Magic, along with a set of novels set in an alternate fantasy world.
