A Tangle of Secrets

An old enemy creeps closer than ever before, intent on extracting revenge. New challenges arise as family dynamics are suddenly shifted following the great battle in Iron Gulch.

Thaddeus Cane has returned to the town of Superstition a very different boy. Even with all the changes he's experienced over the summer, however, Thaddeus must still attend classes at yet another new school. But this school year, he has a completely different mindset. Now he's a wizard who can perform magic.

Keeping his abilities secret, however, proves more complicated than Thaddeus anticipated, especially when he's confronted by the school bully. In addition to the challenge of high school, Thaddeus is continually reminded of the dark forces aligned against him, and now it appears they've set their sights on Teofil and his family as well.

New friendships at school and Teofil's fixation on finding the answers to painful family secrets strain the bond between Thaddeus and Teofil. The truth they seek to uncover may prove to be too much for their very new relationship.
