In the first book, The Mysterious Abductions, animals are disappearing without a trace--and it's up to Dawn, Tobin and Bismark to find out why. With the help of a gentle wombat, a jittery jerboa, a band of coyotes, and some kooky bats, the Nocturnal Brigade journeys to the depths of the earth where they find themselves in a wacky, high stakes game that will determine all of their survival

The adventure continues in The Ominous Eye, the second book of The Nocturnals series by Tracey Hecht. Dawn, Tobin, and Bismark investigate a sudden jolt in the earth and meet an unfamiliar reptile, a tuatara, who claims a beast is at hand. But can the tuatara be trusted? The Nocturnals band together with an array of forest animals to uncover the truth
