Nat looked defiant, though he was trembling, too.One by one, three wild mountain men stepped off the rope ladder and into the cave.Gwin is a Fetcher. With her papa and twin brother, Nat, she travels West Norn, bringing joy to its downtrodden people through song and story.

So when devious Brother Poosk captures Papa, Gwin must rescue him - whatever the cost.Meanwhile, the Oyster's crew and the Sunkers lay siege to the Citadel. But without their Sleeping Captain, can they ever win against the ruthless Devouts? Can Petrel, Fin, Sharkey and Rain ever bring light back to such a dark world?The thrilling conclusion to The Hidden Series.
