The Dragon's Wing Analysis

1. Please give us an introduction to what The Dragon 's Wing Enigma is about. The Arkana Series as a whole is a global treasure hunt. The concept is simple. Take one lost artifact and scatter clues to its whereabouts across the entire planet. Add a secret society and a fanatical religious cult vying to claim it.
