The Phoenix Girls return to Aurora Hollow to learn more powerful, more difficult magic. Their strange companion and teacher, Ronan, increasingly demands more of them, even as he tracks down dangerous magical relics to close doors on trouble before it ravages Dogwood. But closed doors never remain closed.  Ready or not, the girls must defend Aurora Hollow and themselves.  New friends, new enemies, and new monsters join the mystical mayhem as an old threat returns to Dogwood with a new goal: to destroy The Phoenix Girls.

When thirteen-year-old orphan Penny Sinclair moves to the small town of Dogwood to live with her godmother, she expects her life to become very dull.  She doesn't expect to find a strange talking fox roaming the countryside near her new home, a kindred spirit in her new friend Zoe, or the secret grove where they discover the long hidden magic of The Phoenix Girls.Learning to use magic isn't easy, though; Penny and Zoe get their magic wrong almost as often as they get it right.  When something sinister threatens Dogwood, their often accidental magic may be the only thing that can stop it.

In this explosive conclusion to The Phoenix Girls Trilogy, the girls and their expanding circle of friends prepare to defend Aurora Hollow and Dogwood against enemies from another world, and Penny faces the greatest challenge of her young life; the truth about her father, her family's darkest secrets, and the mystery of the Phoenix. Trouble has come to Aurora Hollow again, and this time the whole world is in danger.
