It's time to find your power. Suddenly orphaned and alone, 13-year-old Rosie Frost is sent to the mysterious Bloodstone Island — home not only to a school for extraordinary teens, but also a sanctuary for endangered species. There, Rosie confronts a menacing deputy headmaster, a group of mean kids intent on destroying her, and shocking family secrets. She also discovers that history can come to life in ways she never could have imagined.
When the island itself comes under threat, Rosie knows she must enter and win the Falcon Queen games in a desperate bid to save it. But Rosie can't do it alone. She finds that believing in herself — and her friends — is the first step to finding the power she never knew she had. Spice Girl, songwriter and author Geri Halliwell-Horner presents a sweeping adventure filled with a hidden island, family secrets, shocking betrayals, amazing music, and girl power.
"This contemporary, girl-power story has light paranormal and fantastical elements and is fueled by a captivating mystery and adventure. The good-versus-evil narrative is clear cut and straightforward.... It also features quick pacing, fun and engaging worldbuilding, and a lead character who is easy to root for. Exuberant, action-packed, and warmhearted." — Kirkus Reviews
