While Peter is away from the island, James and the other Lost Boys discover a mysterious cave. Shining Pearl and her sister, Little Scallop, warn the boys that the cave is a dangerous place, inhabited by a creature known as the Goat Taker - a beast so scary that even the Mollusk tribe fears it. But the boys can't resist trying to discover the cave's secrets. When the first of those secrets turns out to be a tantalizing hint of a famous haunted treasure, Captain Hook and his band of cutthroat pirates quickly join the hunt. Before long, the children are fleeing for their lives in a dark and deadly underground labyrinth...and their only hope of escape is to solve the mystery of the Cave of the Dark Wind.

La diciassettenne Ceres, una bellissima ma povera ragazza proveniente dalla città di Delo nell’Impero, si trova da sola in mare, diretta verso la mitica isola Oltrenebbia, e verso la madre che non ha mai incontrato. È pronta a completare il suo allenamento, a capire finalmente il proprio potere e a diventare la guerriera che è destinata ad essere. Ma sua madre sarà lì ad accoglierla? Le insegnerà tutto quello che deve sapere? E le rivelerà tutti i segreti sull’identità di Ceres? A Delo, Tano, pensando che Ceres sia morta, si trova sposato con Stefania e immerse sempre più profondamente in una corte da cui non può fuggire e in una famiglia che odia. Si trova anche nel mezzo di una rivoluzione che sta insorgendo e che culmina in uno sfrontato attacco all’arena. In qualità di persona che potrebbe fermarla – o sostenerla – dovrà decidere se mettere a rischio la propria vita. Con il regno che sta collassando, gli avversari che si muovono da ogni parte e i tentativi di assassinio sempre più abbondanti a corte, Tano non può sapere di chi fidarsi. È incastrato in un gioco di pedine e re, di traditori e regine, e potrebbe essere Stefania, dopotutto, a cambiare tutto. Ma ci sono una seria di tragici malintesi e l’amore che sembrava destinato potrebbe scivolare via dalle loro mani.
