Volume 14 of the Leafy Tom series

"When the emerald becomes a ruby, it will be the end of the universe, starting with the owner of the emerald."

It's just another witch legend, one of many that nobody believes. Except...Phoebe's emerald isn't acting normal, and neither is Phoebe. It isn't just the strange dreams that send her into the pool in her nightgown. There are other strange things happening. Who or what is Maal? And Ogie? When Phoebe's emerald turns red, the team has cause to worry. They are in a race against time, they only have 48 hours from when the three messengers come together to find Phoebe, restore her emerald, and defeat some of the strongest witches they have faced. The trail leads toward an old enemy, and a persistent one, but there is no trace of Phoebe. While Phoebe waits in a mysterious room for her wedding, her team follows all the clues, hoping one of them will lead to their lead witch. To rescue Phoebe and restore her emerald, they will need the help of someone who has no reason to help them, and they will have to trust someone who has proven to be untrustworthy. The countdown starts when the third messenger arrives.
