Which fantastical world will they find this time? In a visit to the psychic’s wagon, while Tess is being hypnotized, the wagon seems to move. But where are they going and what awaits them? Will they be caught in a world different from their own? And do the Baranova twins, acrobats who miss their sister almost as much as Tess and Max miss their family, hold the keys to the mystery?
