The Prophet of Yonwood: The Third Book of Ember

It's 50 years before the settlement of the city of Ember, and the world is in crisis. War looms on the horizon as eleven-year-old Nickie and her aunt travel to the small town of Yonwood, North Carolina. There, one of the town's respected citizens has had a vision of fire and destruction. Her garbled words are taken as prophetic instruction on how to avoid the coming disaster--if only they can be interpreted correctly. As the people of Yonwood scramble to make sense of the woman's mysterious utterances, Nickie explores the oddities she finds around town all while keeping an eye out for ways to help the world.
