Romy Alexander is mystified: What on earth is causing the orang-utans of Mukada Nature Reserve to fall sick and head to the coast? Romy, on a visit to Borneo with her scientist father, isn't convinced by the park warden's explanation that overcrowding is the cause of the problem. The eleven-year-old soon discovers she has acquired extraordinary powers to investigate the mystery that brings her face to face with dark forces threatening the creatures of the rainforest. In this gripping and moving adventure - the first in the Monkey Magic series - Romy comes to realize that she alone can help break a curse that has brought suffering to generations of orang-utans.
