Diversion (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798230001126)

When the MacIver kids helped save an alien people from extinction, they thought the adventure was over.

They were wrong.

With their parents away in Scotland and Amar's grandparents watching the house, life should finally be quiet again. But when Fritter begins howling toward the closed-off trails where the MacIvers once encountered the impossible, Allen knows something is coming. Pinqua has returned, and this time the call for help will take the MacIver kids farther than they ever imagined.

Far beyond Earth.

A fragment from the Galileo spacecraft has reached Europa, one of Jupiter's icy moons, and its discovery has revealed a hidden truth beneath the frozen surface: Atlantis was never lost. It left Earth thousands of years ago and has survived in secret beneath Europa's ocean, protected inside a living city of light, water, and ancient technology.

Now Earth is coming closer. Human exploration threatens to expose Atlantis, and the Atlanteans need the help of the MacIver kids before their hidden world is discovered. But what begins as a mission of rescue quickly becomes something far more complicated. Atlantis is beautiful, advanced, and full of wonders, but it is also a society shaped by old divisions, inherited power, and painful ideas about who belongs.

For Brad, the journey becomes deeply personal when he learns he may be connected to one of Atlantis's founding families. For Allen, the strange bond between the MacIver kids grows stronger and harder to ignore. For all of them, helping Atlantis means confronting questions of loyalty, fairness, identity, and the cost of protecting one world from another.

Blending family adventure, science fiction mystery, space travel, and social themes, Diversion is the second book in The MacIver Kids Adventures, following Loma. It is a young adult science fiction novel about courage, belonging, and the unexpected responsibility of discovering that the universe is far larger-and far more complicated-than anyone imagined.
