For generations, four clans of wild cats have shared the forest. When their warrior code is threatened by mysterious deaths, a house cat named Rusty may turn out to be the bravest warrior of all.

As Jayfeather, Lionblaze, and Dovepaw continue trying to understand the mysterious prophecy that binds them, Jayfeather receives a desperate plea for help from the Tribe of the Rushing Water.

"As a leaderless RiverClan faces disaster, its warriors and its young medicine cat apprentice are determined to protect their Clan and find its new leader-even if it means lying to the other Clans"--

"The warrior code now allows a cat to formally change Clans, but ShadowClan's newest arrival feels increasingly unwelcome--and though ShadowClan warrior Sunbeam thinks every cat deserves a chance, one of the loudest voices of opposition is her own mother.

"Forced out of the forest that had been their home for generations, the four warrior Clans are about to settle into their new homes around the lake. Some cats see their new beginning as a chance for the Clans to live together in peace and friendship, but WindClan's deputy Mudclaw believes the other Clans cannot be trusted.
