The sickening reality of their final task leaches ominously into Archie, Daisy, and Isabella's shattered minds as they near the endgame.
But they're not safe; single-minded Commissioner Stone will not give up his hell-bent attempt to detain the Heirs of Eden and plays his final, shocking hand...
On Havilah, Sue discovers a race of humans trapped in glass-like puddles, one of whom she is identical to her love, Gus. If the Heirs of Eden fail, she learns that these trapped people will be released. She begins to wonder where her allegiances lie. For if the Heirs triumph she will be stuck with only Kemp, Cain and the mysterious elfin servants and their magical companions for company.
On the other, she is aware of a great power building in her, one that may help deliver a safe and happy world again.
As the clock ticks down, can Archie, Daisy and Isabella summon their courage to end their mission? Or will Cain and Kemp thwart them at the last moment and claim the Garden of Eden all for themselves?
Thing is... does Sue know something the Heirs of Eden, and Cain, don't?
All is revealed in the final instalment of Eden Chronicles; the search for the KEY of life.
