Jude Ripon returns on another vigilante mission to save Farrowfell. This is the exciting sequel to the epic fantasy adventure from FAB Prize winning and British Book Award shortlisted author, Ravena Guron.

Jude Ripon has been gifted a fresh new start. For the last four months, she and her older sister Morley have been living with the Weston family. Jude is going to school every day, eating her vegetables and doing her homework. For the first time, Jude's life seems normal. But adventure is calling her name.

While unravelling their family's illegal dealings with raw magic, Jude and Moorley discovered a seedy side to the Consortium. They are eager to bring about justice, in their own way, through a series of heists. But in their escapades, they find something far darker bubbling in Farrowfell.

Reports of a strange, menacing beast are inciting terror. Could it be connected to the resurfacing of raw magic and the devious dealings of the Ripons? Can Jude, Moorley and the Westons band together to save Farrowfell?
