'Nothing in Gwen Jones' life is going right. Fourteen year old Gwen's used to change, to going from place to place, even moving from her native Canada to Australia - but that's when her mother was OK. Before The Change...and the visions started happening. And before the black rain began to fall...and her mother retreats into a strange, unreachable world, and Gwen herself is thrust into a new family - having to make new friends, and learning new things. Magic things. Scary things. How can Gwen save her mother? Who is the old man who keeps appearing to her in visions? Who is really behind it all? And, just who is Gwen, really? Could she really be Guinevere, Queen of Camelot? And just what does that mean? Well, it all adds up to magic, danger, romance, suspense and mystery!'

Gwen's boyfriend Josh, and his sister Tasha are Gwen's allies, but no-one can protect Gwen from the dangers of her own heart when the dark and mysterious Michael comes into her life'.
