Book 3 in the Casey Grimes middle grade fantasy action adventure series-where the woods stop protecting anyone.
The borders aren't holding anymore.
Casey Grimes survived an inferno at Trickery School and made it back for second semester.
He's trained. He's tougher. He finally belongs-and he tested out of Simple Sword Strokes.
But something's wrong in Sylvan Woods.
The twisting trails that kept danger out for centuries are letting the wrong things through. The protective magic is failing-and nobody knows why.
Casey, Gloria, and their crew race to uncover what's breaking the woods before the academy becomes a hunting ground.
Because whoever's behind this isn't just breaking the trails.
They're rewriting the rules of what Sylvan Woods protects-and who it lets die.
The woods are shifting.
The paths are closing.
And Casey is running out of safe places to stand.
