A ruthless leader has seized control of the Ares and will stop at nothing to destroy Ava's fledgling alliance. The Earth Mother, reeling from the agony of a warming planet, threatens to unleash her fiery rage. The Gaia Elders challenge Ava's claim to the mantle of Alpha, sowing discord within the Order. Facing danger on all sides, Ava struggles to unlock the puzzle of communing with the Earth Mother. But betrayal lurks where she least expects it. Ava of the Gaia Book 3 "Ava and her friends are back, this time with an ancient source of powerful wisdom that was hidden for hundreds of years.
