Tales of the Fifth Guardian; Book Seven

Kerreth and Kerrisha have been back from the Thoran mission for over a month and it soon becomes apparent that Vynlon has done nothing to stop Brindon from harassing them as he is responsible for yet another attack on Kerrisha. But is he working alone? The vision that started on the Thoran mission continues to plague Kerrisha, even forcing her to cut short an investigation following the return of the vision that gives her a thread of hope: "In the same moment I had seen the responsibility of the Guardian pass from me and onto the shoulders of my young daughter I had seen the one man who had been born to be Tesha to the fifth Guardian standing next to her. It was he I could prepare to deliver a final, desperate, clue to Kerreth to save my child from her fate and restore me to my destiny." As Kerrisha wrote in her journal after the Thoran mission, they have entered into a year of betrayals that has only begun and the betrayals seem to come from all sides: From the complex director who has been misusing Power. To an oath, sworn to Kerrisha by a family member, that will be rejected. An agent is captured in a secret complex and, as they discover, all is not as it seems when the Cloaked Interrogator is called in. Then the mission ends with one of Kerrisha's own secrets being exposed. Has she really been lying to Richard after swearing not to? A betrayal begun in King Victor's time reaches its head, with Kerrisha bearing the brunt of a long forgotten desire for revenge. Finally, everything culminates in the worst betrayal as the Devon Prophecy comes to pass: The head of the line of yellow will face a danger from within. The head will be severed from the body by a betrayal from the line of fire. A Power Sworn oath in fire rejected and bonds broken painfully. The Betrayer's work completed with an innocent framed. And a life-long friend turns his back on Kerrisha. Includes an Otlantesha Dictionary and Pronunciation key after the story.
