Description:

"Lee continues to distinguish herself with her ability to bring flesh and blood to the worlds of the future."—Science Fiction and Fantasy Review

Jet and her robot dog, Otis, have been taken with Jet’s two sisters—one of whom has a role in the latest Super-Movie—to their planet’s film capital, Ollywood. Jet and Otis are soon catapulted into the unplumbed underworld that lurks below the studios and lots. Here lies the beautiful and sinister otherwhere of Indigara, which has spontaneously generated from the sets, costumes, models, and actual celluloid of rejected pilot fantasy and SF movies that never got made into series. Even while Jet and her dog try to survive the dangers and terrors below, their Indigaran mirror images have replaced them, and are running amok in the real world above...

When her annoying older sister gets a bit part in a movie, fourteen-year-old Jet and her family travel to Ollywood--the movie capital of their earth-like planet--where, on a trip through the city's subways, Jet and her robot dog Otis are transported to a world of rejected fantasy and science fiction movies and must try to find their way back to reality.
