A middle grade adventure fantasy book for children ages 8-12.

Everett and his little sister didn't realize the danger they were in when they entered the cave. They didn't realize the lake inside the cave was a prison for monsters. They certainly didn't realize the threat to life on Earth if those monsters escaped.

With the help of some mysterious magic-wielding rescuers, the children race down the mountain to warn humanity of the impending doom. Along the way, Everett must face one of his greatest fears or watch his little sister perish-but can he do it?
