Maia and the Secrets of Zagran (Paperback or Softback)

Secrets always find their way out.

Thirteen-year-old Maia thinks she has seen it all. She has survived a soul-extraction attempt, been threatened with death, and faced off with saboteurs trying to bring down her nation. She lets nothing get to her anymore—not even the memories of her deceased mother's terrifying communique. All Maia wants is for the Alliance Initiative to resume. She longs to visit the under-ocean civilization of the Jjord, ride the underwater transport lines, and to learn about the Jjordic energy farms that could save her ruined planet. Most of all, she wants to goof off with her friends.

But, around the charming city of Zagran, evil is gathering. Maia does not know it yet, but the secrets she thought were safely behind her are dangerously close to being discovered. And worst of all, the countdown to her planet’s planned extinction has already begun.
