In the dazzling conclusion to the Greystone Secrets
series from New York Times bestselling author Margaret Peterson Haddix,
the Greystones and their doubles, the Gustanos, must team up to save the
alternate world—before both worlds are lost. All secrets are revealed in this
page-turning, suspenseful story that shows the importance of teamwork, telling
your story, and taking action when it matters most. Now available in paperback.
As book three of the Greystone Secrets series opens, the
Greystone kids have their mother back from the evil alternate world, and so
does their friend Natalie. But no one believes the danger is past.
Then mysterious coins begin falling from unexpected places.
They are inscribed with codes that look just like what the Greystones’ father
was working on before he died. And with the right touch, those symbols
transform into words: PLEASE LISTEN. And FIND US, SEE US, HELP US. . . .
The coins are messengers, telling the Greystones and their
allies that their friends in the alternate world are under attack—and that the
cruel, mind-controlling forces are now invading the better world, too.
After another spinning, sliding journey across worlds, the
Greystone kids must solve mysteries that have haunted them since the beginning:
what happened when the Gustanos were kidnapped, what created the alternate
world, and how a group of mismatched kids can triumph once and for all against
an evil force that seems to have total control.

Zusatztext
"This mystery and science fiction adventure features sleuthing reminiscent of Lemony Snicket’s 'A Series of Unfortunate Events.' Haddix weaves a dystopian tale about government control, prison reform, fair trials, scapegoats, and the importance of believing people are innocent before proven guilty. "
