[edit] Plot Summary

In the midst of war, Eglantine unwittingly becomes a spy for Kludd, leader of the Pure Ones. She is brainwashed (aka shattered) by an owl called Ginger, sent by the Pure Ones to infiltrate the Great Ga'Hoole Tree. Ginger was a prisoner-of-war, injured in a recent battle between the Guardians of Ga'hoole and the Pure Ones. She supposedly got 'sick' of the Pure ones, and stayed inside Eglantine's hollow. (Also shared with Primrose, Eglantine's best friend). Eglantine's odd behavior eventually attracts attention, and Soren and his friends vow to find out what's wrong with Eglantine. Kludd continues to battle against the Guardians of Ga'Hoole for control of their tree. Will Soren and the band be able to help Eglantine reverse the effects of the brainwashing?
