Martina Mackenzie: The Enchanted Carousel - Martina Mackenzie, #2

A strange creature in the forest . . . A septet of mystical amulets . . . A beautiful enchanted carousel . . . Martina, Heath, and London must figure out how they are connected to a greater mystery in time to prevent Sheardland from completely falling under the carousel's spell.

The second installment of the Martina Mackenzie series, The Enchanted Carousel, promises more magical mystery as Martina, Heath, and London return to Sheardland for a much-anticipated festival: a celebration of magic and all that is Rhihalven.
To help finish the enchanted carousel before the festival, the trio must harvest wood from a special tree, but a wrong turn in the forest leaves them lost and dependant on the sage Amara for guidance. In return for her help, they agree to search for the Bloodstone Amulet—rumored to heal any ailment—which has been lost since ancient times. Assisted by a precocious Rhihalva girl, the crew searches banned texts and discovers a plot to copy the amulet and switch the fake for the real thing.
Could the mysterious symbols on beaded necklaces from the festival mean more than well-wishes? Will Martina, Heath, and London discover the carousel's secret before a dangerous secret society makes their intentions known?
All the while, a strange feeling is overwhelming the inhabitants of Sheardland, and somehow, the enchanted carousel is at the root of it all.
