A dragon is dreaming of a time when plague blighted the city, when a mysterious cauldron was used for wicked magic and what this would mean if it fell into the wrong hands now ... On a mission from the shores of the Thames, to the ghost-filled gardens of Hyde Park and the forbidding Tower of London, Marisee and Robert must use every ounce of ingenuity they possess to defeat the most villainous foe yet ... and find out some secrets about their own families.

On the night before Epiphany, while Italy sleeps beneath a winter sky, small wishes begin to stir in children’s hearts. They are not loud or glittering wishes, but gentle hopes and timid dreams—the courage to try again, the wish to be kinder, the hope of believing a little more in oneself. That night, La Befana glides silently above the rooftops, gathering these wishes with a special lantern. Not to judge them, but to protect them, cherish them, and plant what is meant to grow.
