The Thirteen Series - Set of 3 Unabridged Audio CDs

The Glass Castle

Avery dragged her three-year-old brother behind a boxwood bush and listened for footsteps in the brittle leaves. She couldn't be sure which was louder—the person on their trail or her own heart, galloping like a stallion in her ears.

With one hand over Henry's mouth, Avery looked down at the nicest dress she owned. Not only had she torn the ruffles and destroyed the hem, but the white linen stood out in the shadowy woods, making her an easy target.

If she survived this afternoon and made it home tonight—and that felt like a giant if—her father would demand to know why her dress was stained with grass and mud and tinged with blood. She would tell him the truth.

The Ruby Moon

The castle is buzzing with excitement as preparations begin for the upcoming Olympiad. Everyone knows the queen is still on the hunt for the king's rightful heir, and kids begin mysteriously disappearing from the castle.

When Avery learns that a male runner is needed for an important race in the Olympiad, she volunteers so she can get close to the action. Will she be able to hide her true identity... or will she be discovered? One slip-up could mean a trip to the dungeon—or worse.

The Paper Boat

The king is very ill and in a hurry to hand over his power to a new generation when rumors begin to circulate through the kingdom. It appears the king is unaware of the queen's sinister plot against the thirteen-year-old orphans, as she wants to ensure her child becomes rightful heir to the throne.

Avery weighs the pros and cons of seeking an audience with the king while the castle is dealt a heavy blow; but Avery decides the risk is worth taking, and she steps out of the shadows for the first time since entering the castle walls.

When Avery is offered the opportunity of a lifetime, will she choose a life free from hardship within the castle walls... or her family and the home she left behind?
