And does Ryder really want to take along the bully that got him in this mess in the first place?

The planners of the nefarious plots against the Ryder family are still unknown. Ryder and friends must deal with more serious threats. Will they survive another adventure on Demeter?

This series continues to get better and better. In this second book of the series more and more of the puzzle pieces are coming together. The plot becomes more intricate and, fair warning, it becomes much harder to put the book down once you begin.
