Brilliant, Bea Brightman is one of the popular girls or Top Pops as she calls them. After attending seven schools in as many years, she’s a master at making friends. That is until her father, a world-renowned archaeologist, moves them to New York City to pursue an ever-elusive coin. There she meets the mysterious and decidedly unpopular Nisha Lakewood who may hold the key to finding it.
Nisha Lakewood is a "Not Pop" who doesn’t fit in anywhere. At school it’s rumored that she’s a witch able to make children fly. Yet at home, her fortuneteller Aunt finds her disappointingly normal. But as Nisha approaches her thirteenth birthday, things begin to change. The magic she never believed she had is suddenly showing up when she least expects it and the nosy new girl, Bea Brightman, is on to her secret.
When Bea and Indy, a boy from the neighborhood, decide to pay Nisha’s Aunt a visit, it sets the three off on an unforeseen adventure that includes a prophecy, an unbreakable oath and one incredible coin.
The Third Coin, has been described as “fun, funny, inventive, with delightful characters and plot twists that will surprise you.” According to Kirkus Reviews, it is a “fantasy novel for young readers that blends classic Arthurian legends with a teen drama…the quest-driven plot will keep young fantasy fans engaged.”
