The last ember / Lily Berlin Dodd.
Aerimanders, dragon-like creatures believed to be extinct, were once destroyed by royal decree due to their destructive power. When twelve-year-old Eva Alexander inadvertently acquires what may be the last surviving aerimander egg, she becomes entangled in political intrigue and criminal interest within the Kingdom of Glaucus. The Thieves' Union assigns one of its youngest members, Dusty St. Ichabod, to retrieve the egg. As Eva and Dusty cross paths, they become involved in a pursuit that spans cities and institutions, including crime syndicates and elite schools, while evading government authorities seeking control of the creature. Their efforts focus on protecting the egg and confronting the potential consequences of its hatching. This novel is the first in a fantasy adventure series.
Twelve-year-old Eva and orphan Dusty race against time to keep a rare aerimander egg, an unhatched dragon-like creature, out of the wrong hands.
