THE UNBREAKABLE BOND 

Now an agent for the Biota, a secret government organization devoted to fighting environmental crime, Sailor is hot on the trail of her sister, Keel, who's been kidnapped. But rescuing her won't be easy, especially if the diabolical scientist, Dr. Chenille Sarazin, has anything to say about it. Backed by Hydrus, a powerful animal trafficking ring, Sarazin has also created a new high-tech device that will tip the scales in favor of poachers. It's up to Sailor, Cruz, Emmett, and Lani to stop her (with a little help from Fanchon) but can they do it in time to save the endangered animals and Keel? Find out in the second exciting book in the EXPLORER ACADEMY VELA series. Pre-order your copy today!

Sailor enlists her closest friends and teammates, Cruz, Emmett, and Lani to aid in the rescue, a move that plunges the explorers into the dark and dangerous world of animal trafficking.
