Synopsis
With the rescue of Princess Junjung behind her, life for the remarkable Kimberley Shu has returned to normal as she learns more of her traditional heritage and culture amongst the palm trees and tropical beauty of South East Asia.
Now, with the celebrations of the Chinese New Year, comes another adventure for Kimberley, who at only 11 shows remarkable maturity for her years, as she uncovers the truth behind the ghost in the rice field, encounters a benevolent dragon and survives a remarkable journey to a mysterious underwater palace.
But when catastrophe threatens the idyllic village lifestyle, Kimberley quickly discovers she will need more than her own inner strength and magic to ensure her family’s survival...

From The Book
Kang sat down on the grass for a while before joining Ismail, thoughts of all that happened flooding through his mind. Had he really seen a ghost, or was it just a trick of the light and his tired eyes?
A few days later he had all but forgotten the strange encounter when a sudden chill passed over him again. Hovering a short distance away was the same apparition he had seen earlier in the week.
"Ismail, can you come over here please," he called
"What's up?" Ismail asked, running up to him.
"Can you see anything over there?” Kang pointed towards the middle of the rice fields.
Ismail's heart froze. "Yes, I can, but I don't believe it," he said. "There is a shadow of a young woman with long hair floating above the ground. I can understand how you felt the other day, Kang, because I am feeling quite sick now."
"Well, we can't both be seeing things," Kang said. "Perhaps she has something to tell us."
"Perhaps," Ismail replied.
"But I cannot see her face, and her body is white and translucent," Kang observed.
"I will have nightmares tonight for sure," Ismail said.
The ghost suddenly moved towards them and Kang screamed. "Run, Ismail, it's coming for us!" he shouted.
