From the Back Cover

A Warrior's Challenge. . . "It will be your turn to join this fight sooner than you think," the woman warrior riding the silver unicorn tells her. And 13-year-old Frankie Maxwell takes it seriously--even though she knows it's just a dream.

The thing is, that warrior in her dream looks disturbingly like Frankie's Aunt Cassie, who's been mysteriously ill for a long time. Frankie finds out that when her Dad says Cassie "isn't all there," he's more right than he thinks, because she really isn't all here! Part of her got stranded somewhere else--locked in a crystal on a parallel world in the shimmering city of Alaris--where she actually once rode a silver unicorn and fought for her life against an evil warrior queen, just like in Frankie's dream.

When Frankie plunges through a dimensional portal to Alaris, she is determined to find and retrieve the magic crystal holding those stranded pieces of Aunt Cassie, to make her aunt whole and well again. But she's going to have to contend with another warrior queen, who rules the neighboring land and is trying desperately to find the door between worlds to conquer and expand her empire.

With only the help of a cranky unicorn, a wise woman, a wizard, and the queen's niece, Frankie not only has to find her aunt's crystal, she also has to find the key that will lock the door between worlds--and make them safe--forever.
