Coming Soon: The Winding Woods: The Siren from the Silver Sea
Once upon a time, or so the story goes, a girl named Izzie is taken from her home in the Winding Woods. Hidden away with a boggle, she learns how to live in a new world with an adopted family. Only the boggle can explain the mysterious happenings around Izzie: items flying across the room, shadows taking over the yard, a classmate's inexplicable death. No one suspects the weird girl, all the while her family worries about the "imaginary" friend that doesn't seem to go away with time.
The boggle is not only her caretaker but her only true friend, knowing all her secrets. He protects her from the class bully to the larger-than-life shape-shifting shadows who try to kidnap her into the darkness. Creatures emerge from the deepest crevasses of the land in an attempt to steal back the beloved girl.
Through chaos and fear, she learns the truth of the Winding Woods' curse and her key to the magic behind it. Not knowing the extent of her powers as a witch or who to trust, Izzie returns home to save it from the Phantasma, learning that not all fairytales are meant to end with a happily ever after.
A young girl wakes up in the middle of a forest, without any clue of how she got there, where she’s going, or who she is. Lost and confused her only companion is a small orange cat that is showing her the way home. As if being lost and alone wasn’t bad enough, she is being stalked by a dark shadowy creature – the Grimalkin. She learns on her adventures that there are two sides to every story, and that nothing is ever as it seems when there is magic involved.
A lot can happen over the course of a year, especially when you have no memory of your past. Thea must learn what is the truth of her past through her new experiences. Still not knowing if the Grimalkin is the cause of her pain, or if she is merely a pawn, unsure if her memories are hoer own. Thea leaves her friends behind as she seeks the truth, and along the way discovers she must not always depend on her magic to help her.
Some feel sorry for her, others call Lilly a monster. The perception of Lilly's past has caused her to be feared by the kingdom. By a twist of fate, Thea and Lilly join forces and rely on each other in their quest to find their mothers
Robin never returned to her group. Penelope is missing. Everyone is looking for the Grimalkin. Three different expeditions bring the truth of the Circle of Owls to light, and Thea discovers how deeply entwined her past is within it. While trying to piece together how she’s connected to the Circle, while trying to save her family, she must also protect her friends from those who are trying to destroy the world as they know it.
A Grimalkin is defined on a high level as an old female cat....but....in Irish and Scottish fairy tales.... a Grimalkin was a shape shifting witch that would turn into a black, shadowy cat...and would eat your soul!
