MARK AND LILY HAVE BEEN BANISHED from Agora, the ancient city-state where everything is for sale - memories, emotions - even children. Lost and alone they discover Giseth, a seemingly perfect land where everyone is equal, possessions are unknown, and Lily believes they will find the secret of their entwined destiny. But paradise comes at a price. Why are their new friends so scared? What hides deep in the forest? And who is the mysterious woman who appears in their dreams, urging them to find the Children of the Lost?

"In the tower of Count Stelli in the ancient city-state of Agora, two children meet, apparently by chance. At first, their only goal is survival: In Agora, everything can be bought and sold, debt is death, and Mark and Lily must barter their labor for their lives. But they are destined to fulfill the prophecy of the secret Midnight Charter devised by Agora's founders. What is the Charter? How and why are members of the city's powerful elite involved--and who among them can Lily and Mark trust?"--Page 2 of cover.
