Evangeline ist 17, Amerikanerin - und die illegitime Tochter des britischen Königs. Als sie vom Internat fliegt, muss Evan nach Schloss Windsor, wo sie die Zeit bis zu ihrem achtzehnten Geburtstag möglichst skandalfrei verbringen soll. Ihr Empfang fällt alles andere als herzlich aus. Als nach einer Party auch noch ein junger Adeliger tot aufgefunden wird und man Evan verdächtigt, ihn ermordet zu haben, steht das Königshaus vor einer Zerreißprobe. Zusammen mit dem gleichaltrigen Kit versucht sie herauszufinden, was wirklich passiert ist - und stößt dabei auf Geheimnisse, die skandalöser sind, als sie sich je hätte ausmalen können. Geheimnisse, die die Monarchie für immer verändern könnten ...
Twins Zac and Lu grew up on their mother's stories of the Wildewoods, an imaginary land where mythical beasts roam free. These creatures fill the pages of Zac's sketchbooks and inspire Lu's love of animals, and on most days, they're the only thing the twins have in common. When their mother dies, a heartbroken Lu and Zac are shipped off to England to spend the summer with relatives they've never met. But it doesn't take the twins long to uncover the incredible secret tucked away in the forest behind their ancestral home: their mother's wonderful tales about unicorns and dragons and centaurs weren't make-believe after all. Their family serves as keepers of the Wildewoods, the last place on earth where these mythical creatures can live safe from human harm. But there are also many dangers in these lands-as well as a terrible curse. When Zac and Lu fall victim to it, their only hope is finding the very last living phoenix left in the world. But will breaking the curse mean the end of the Wildewoods?
