Aquarius

The Gilded Trilogy #2

by Christina Anderson

Reagan Farrell is running out of time. King Midas has escaped, and rumor has it she will stop at nothing to obtain the golden touch. And she is elusive, weaving her way through seas and land to make it to something-something that only King Midas knows about. The only hint she leaves behind for Reagan is a string of disappearances and deaths, a bloody trail to follow. It doesn't help that no one knows how to sail a ship, and Aerosion Gliders can only take Reagan and her friends so far. The only person to offer assistance to them is unwanted, and no one, especially Terrence, can trust the former Aegis Jack. But they take him on their team, anyway, and he leads them across the sea to track down King Midas and stop her before it's too late. It doesn't help that Jack knows more than he is willing to let on. With a man they can't trust steering a boat they can't control, it gets harder and harder to stop King Midas. But Reagan is determined to end this once and for all, and she will stop at nothing to stop the golden touch. This is the second book in the Gilded Trilogy.
