It begins with a statue? Eleven-year-old Michael Ravencraft is a self-taught junior agent itching to fine-tune his skills. When a statue of a Hawaiian Demigoddess mysteriously appears in the middle of his hometown of Stormy Bay, Washington, he quickly takes action to unmask the truth. While working the case, Michael makes an incredible discovery; his father is rumored to be alive and walking among them. A sign of what?s to come? Blinded by the desire to find his father, Michael ignores the strange occurrences gripping his hometown in fear ? ghostly figures, disappearing citizens, eerie circus, and power hungry German Nazis. But when a pendent around his neck flashed blue, something impossible happened, he mind-traveled to the past ? against his will! From the past he learns of an ancient Hawaiian race of beings called Kupua that possess the very power the Nazis seek; an elixir that gives immortality and the ability to change shape. Unexpected turn-of-event has occurred, Michael?s older sister Isabella reviles her deepest secret and transformed into a bobcat. Now he questioned his own humanity ? reality is a hard thing to swallow. And ends with the pulse of a child? A small amount of the elixir has been found, but it doesn?t work on humans. Michael is believed to have the missing ingredient; his own blood. Several evil factions have united determined to possess the elixir for themselves and will stop at nothing; power worth killing for? Now Stormy Bay becomes a battleground and Michael?s the grand prize ? if they can catch him!
