Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0590433180, Paperback)

Simon, Jane, and Barney, enlisted by their mysterious great-uncle, arrive in a small coastal town to recover a priceless golden grail stolen by the forces of evil -- Dark. They are not at first aware of the strange powers of another boy brought to help, Will Stanton -- nor of the sinister significance of the Greenwitch, an image of leaves and branches that for centuries has been cast into the sea for good luck in fishing and harvest.

Their search for the grail sets into motion a series of distubing, sometimes dangerous events that, at their climax, bring forth a gift that, for a time at least, will keep the Dark from rising.

"AND THOSE WHO ARE CROSSED, OR BARREN, OR WHO WOULD MAKE ANY WISH, MUST TOUCH

THE GREENWITCH"

The Dark has stolen an object of great power -- a golden grail that holds a

back the Dark once again. But first he will need the help of three former

grail seekers: Jane, Simon, and Barney Drew.

Learning to work together, they must take back the grail and retrieve the

missing manuscript that unlocks its mystical secret. But the manuscript is

located at the bottom of the sea, and their only hope of obtaining both

grail and script is entangled in the mysterious ritual of the Greenwitch....
