Nim has done it. She' s proven she can ride a dragon. Unfortunately, she also proved she can fall off and lose a dragon, and now the folk of Dragon's Roost are a bit upset. Not at her, because nobody knows her secret. Yet. But when they do they'll probably... well she's not sure what they'll do because nobody has ever Iost a dragon before. It's not like losing your coin purse, is it? Whatever it is, it's sure to be bad. Meanwhile, children continue to vanish, her Uncle Ordric may lose his job as Dragonmaster (after all, it was his dragon that's gone missing), and increasingly, it seems everything may be connected to the dark circumstances of Nim's birth.
... Oh, and there may be a race of sea demons out to kill everyone.
