An evil from Manabozho's past threatens to destroy the magical Manitou Island.
TITLE: Return To Manitou Island

GENRES: Fantasy, adventure, drama, mythology.

RATING: 13+

SUMMARY: Almost a year after coming home from her adventure on the magical Manitou Island, Charmian finds herself heartbroken, lonely, and wanting to return...if only the right dream would come. For she has not dreamed about the Island in months, and the last person who seems to have believed her fantastic story is now gone. Grieving and desperate for a change of pace from reality, what can Charmian do? Oddly enough, a gift left by her grandmother...a dreamcatcher...provides her means of returning--and Charmian does so without a qualm. Little does she know that awaiting her on Manitou Island is a force even greater and more evil than the vanquished Ocryana...and there will be lives endangered, dark secrets revealed, and terrible struggles to endure before she can even think of heading home again...
