Description:

Elizabeth Coventry was fighting against a ruthless serial kidnapper, while Sarah Lakshmi-Matthews was in a very different fight with her goofy but frustrated father. These two girls leading contrasting lives have now found themselves lost in an unfamiliar and dangerous land.

One is awkwardly, inexplicably adored in this strange country. Everyone seems to know impossible details about her life, and they whisper rumors of a prophecy. The other has been imprisoned in a dilapidated forest cottage by a cruel but clever old woman, until she is brought to the bloodthirsty, mad Queen. What was already the most terrifying experience of her life soon transforms into her worst nightmare.

With a peculiar band of new friends, these two brave girls are catapulted into nail-biting adventures, spellbinding mysteries, and oddly hilarious surprises that will both test and impress them. But will the twists and turns lead them home?

Review

"Morton's prose is brisk and easy to digest, which makes the reading experience consistently engaging. Although the tale is firmly in the fantasy genre, complete with magical beings and portals, it ably brings in elements of thrillers and even cozy mysteries. Despite some darkness, this tale is often fun and lighthearted. An energetic, adventurous, and warm genre-bending tale. " -- Kirkus Reviews

"The characters superseded all of my expections and I loved every last one of them." -- A.W.

"What I really loved was the unexpected ending" -- Amazon reviewer

"Alice In Wonderland meets The Hunger Games!" -- T.S.

"The worldbuilding was intriguing and it had some really fun and creative concepts (extra shoutout to Oswald, he was delightfully sassy)" -- G.M.

"Both Sarah and Eli are loveable (though Juliette may have been my favorite...or Oswald). I had no trouble feeling right at home. And I can absolutely foresee readers wanting to come back and read the next book!" -- N.B
