Meanwhile Leo reconnects with his old friends and rediscovers a world that he had almost forgotten. They decide to stay for the summer. Left alone at home, during the hottest hours of the day, Megan is disturbed by mysterious presences. While trying to understand what is happening to her she starts to find clues in the palace to an unsolved mystery in Leo's family.
