The Lost World

A search for Malone goes awry when Marguerite and Roxton part ways only to be ambushed by cannibals. Marguerite is rescued by three travelers in 17th century garb, led by the charming Francois Lake...on a horse that leaves no hoof-prints. While in their company, the trio promise Marguerite a lavish lifestyle of travel, riches, and--most importantly--a way off the plateau. Roxton, Challenger, and Veronica carry out a search for the disappeared Marguerite, only to receive a ransom letter demanding Marguerite's jewels. While the remaining resident's of the treehouse hold on to their suspicions about the nature of the ransom and Marguerite's captors, even Malone delivers a warning from another realm. But when Roxton and the others go to rescue Marguerite, it appears that she has joined their ranks. Could she and the others be tricked by their own desires?
