The Silver Key: Secrets of the Hidden Runes

The key will unlock the truth, but the runes demand a price.

The adventure continues in this spellbinding sequel to The Silver Key.

Elena Fern has finally found her place as the Keeper of Château de la Lune. The ancient estate is restored, humming with vibrant magic, and she is surrounded by her loyal council and a family she never knew she had. But peace is fragile. A terrifying vision from the enigmatic Shadow Rune shatters the calm—a glimpse of a dark tower crumbling in a distant desert, a warning that a long-slumbering power is stirring.

The reawakening of the château has acted as a beacon, and now darker forces are drawn to its light. To protect her home and the world beyond, Elena must embark on a new, more dangerous quest. Guided by a magical, living atlas hidden deep within the château’s library, she and her friends must descend into forgotten, trap-laden vaults beneath the foundations to secure three powerful, hidden runes sealed away by the first Keepers.

But they are not alone. A cold, calculating enemy—a being of ancient cosmic power known as a Shaper—is hunting the same treasures, and he will use their deepest fears and doubts as weapons against them. To succeed, Elena must master the true lessons of the runes, not as tools of power, but as parts of her own soul, and learn that the greatest strength lies in the unbreakable bonds of her fellowship.

Secrets of the Hidden Runes is a thrilling journey deeper into the rich, magical world of Château de la Lune, perfect for readers who love intricate puzzles, emotional character growth, and battles against terrifying, ancient evils.
