So when Jenret proposes taking themand any friends who wish to make the journeyalong on a business trip to the Sunerlies, the twins can hardly contain their excitement. The only thing more thrilling is the newfound bond Jenneth has made with the ghatten Pw'eek and Diccon with her sister ghatten Kwee.

Yet almost from the start the journey seems overshadowed with bad luckor evil intent. Though Doyce, newly retired from the position of Seeker General, has come along in the hopes of restrengthening her emotional ties with her husband Jenret, they seem to be caught in a kind of private war neither can control.

Yet despite these ill omens, they are determined not to turn back.

But the real disaster strikes at sea, when a storm sweeps Jenneth and Pw'eek overboard.
