Ascendant - A.L. Knorr;Martha Carr

Before you go looking for answers, make sure you can handle the truth.

Jordan is a step closer to uncovering the mystery of her mother’s disappearance. Sol can finally make his urgent delivery and Allan has received Jordan’s message, but instead of giving him comfort it has only made him desperate. And what is with these strange glass bugs, anyway? Could they be the secret to finding his missing daughter? Fiddling with Elven magic could become the biggest regret of Allan’s life.

Meanwhile, a young dragon has imprinted on Jordan, her companion for life whether she likes it or not. That’s alright, he’s just a little guy...pretty harmless...

When the locket with her mother’s portrait inside begins to behave strangely she learns that what seems a simple family heirloom is actually a magic compass...

Following the locket means there is no turning back.

Jordan finds herself running for her life from someone she expected would welcome her with open arms. When two friends show up with a terrifying report of Allan’s whereabouts, can Jordan survive long enough to rescue her father?
