It's
the final year for most of the Defenders at the School of Roots and Vines. It's hard to imagine that Sophie
is beginning her senior year and planning her wedding to Marcus the following
summer.
The group
still needs to find their 6th Defender in order to save Thicket Hall
and prevent the Serpent from being unleashed.
Who is
it?
No one
seems to know, or at least they aren't inclined to reveal themselves to the
other Defenders. They may not even know what they are and that could prove a
challenge when they need to defend Thicket Hall.
It will be
up to the intrepid group of friends to find out who is the last ally and bring
them into their circle.
But just
as they're cruising toward the end of their time inside the ancient tree, the
danger grows. Five of the Six seals guarding the Serpent have been opened. The
Defenders will have to fight with everything they have to prevent Caleb and the
Templetons from taking control.
Is this
the end for Thicket Hall and the tree? Or will the Defenders find a way to save
it and the school?
