Britta's dream is to be a sea trader, like her father. But the shameful end to her father's last voyage has forced her family into hiding, and his ship - the Star of Deltora - forfeited into the hands of the powerful trader, Mab.

As the trials increase in difficulty, darker forces seem to haunt the crew's every harbour. Soon enough, these sinister tendrils draw the ship to the cursed Isle of Tier - the site of Britta's father's undoing ...
