Everyday life is turned upside down in the quiet community when stories of a naked stranger roaming the eastern shores of the island spread like most rumors do. Reports of the incident were startling and the mystery wasnt easy for anyone to explain. As the investigation moved forward, following several sightings by local residents, the uncomfortable situation only created more questions than answers.

After several days of desperate searching by the birds, rabbits, and termites, Queen Amy and her lost comrades had finally been found, but there was no time to waste celebrating their recovery. The black queen had set an ambush along the fence line, and there were fears that Austin, Queen Ivy, and the freedom fighters might have traveled toward the field on their way back to Isoptera in an attempt to get Forest Greens army back under the control of their queen.

This is the last publication in The Anthology series and the authors eleventh release. For more information, visit Bing, James Malcolm Book Collection. Life is an adventure. Enjoy the ride.

Uniting the five colonies was critical for the freedom fighters to overcome the dominance of the Black Queen. Standing together they had a chance to determine their own destiny, but apart there was little hope of escaping the tyranny of Casandras ghastly domination, and with Silver Citys queen lost in the storm, there was no one else who could convince the outlying colonies to stand against the two wicked sisters. The termite queen couldnt do it, since she was a natural born enemy and no other ant held a high enough rank to address such issues with ruling monarchs. Queen Amy had to be found before it was too late to prevent the looming annihilation of her colony or others and the freedom fighters were using every resource at their disposal to find out what happened to their influential queen, who was brave enough to defiantly stand against her own mother.

A few short years of peaceful cohabitation are once again suddenly interrupted by yet another kidnapping, but this time the intentions are far more brutal in nature and the hopes of a second liberation require the entangled spells of mortal and immortal alike, in a battle of wit and magic to rescue the monarch and others from a perverse fate worse than death itself.
