The Girl on the Dock

A Dark Fairy Tale

By: G. Norman Lippert

Narrated by: Jus Sargeant

Returning to the home of her grandfather after her final school year, Petra Morganstern is a changed young witch. Confident in her recent choices, yet plagued by dreams of what they cost her, Petra is unsure what to do with the rest of her life. Petra's one ray of hope is her young step-sister, Izabella, whose simple-minded charm is only offset by the awful Phyllis, her hateful mother.

Desperate to protect Izabella from the increasing rages of Phyllis, Petra struggles to find balance between the forces that seek to rule her heart. Will she cling to the choices she has already made, upholding good over her own greatest desires, or will the ghost of power and revenge, always at work in the back room of her mind, be her final undoing? As things spiral out of control, Petra finds herself confronted with the unforgiving force of destiny, thrusting her into the ultimate choice one more time. Only this time, no one will be there to save the day. This time, the choice will be Petra's alone.

Great linking story..

I’ve read all of G Norman Lippert’s James Potter books, and I must say, this story although not essential to those, definitely ties their beautifully with them. I did find that I wasn’t as immersed into the story as I was the James Potter series. I do hope he does write more on these characters he has developed (more of the American Wizarding world he added?????). This story is great and definitely worth a read (although you get more from it if you read (listen) at the right point in the James Potter series.

A nice side story for JP fans but too short.

This is a nice edition to the JP series but it really isn't necessary if I'm being honest. I enjoyed it but it was too short and rather boring. It is sort of cool to get to know Petra and her sister more but the whole story was too short and didn't really go far enough to be interesting.
