The second book in an enchanting series about sisters who enter a magical land where they may be the key to saving the unicorns.

Claire and Sophie have decided to stay in Arden--the magical but troubled land they discovered up the chimney in their aunt's estate. The sisters have learned that they are the last descendants of the Arden prince, and that only a royal heir with magic in their blood can awaken the unicorns. Since Sophie does not have magic, Arden's last hope of saving the unicorns rests on Claire.
The sisters journey to Stonehaven so Claire can learn to harness her Gemmer abilities. As Claire finds her training more difficult than expected, Sophie uncovers the dangers of their situation. Can Claire prove she is the heir and unlock the magic of the unicorns--before it's too late?
This spellbinding sequel blends the timeless feel of The Last Unicorn with Frozen's powerful themes of identity, enchantment, and sisterhood.
