"Fantasy lovers of all generations will fall in love with this endearing
and fresh take on a portal adventure reminiscent of The Lion, the Witch,
and the Wardrobe." --Jacqui Castle, award-winning author of The
Seclusion
When eight-year-old Abbie Brown discovers a quiet pool of water while
wandering through the woods behind her Oregon home, she wades out into
it and discovers she's not alone. A wild-haired boy in green stares at
her from the other side of the water. Mesmerized, Abbie reaches down to
him, and is yanked underwater.
She emerges on the other side as an unwelcome visitor to the Otherworld,
the land of the Fae, with only the boy Foster to guide her. Back in
Oregon, a changeling lookalike has taken her place, bonding with her
mother while her father, hiding a secret of his own, views the "girl"
with suspicion.
In the courts of the Fae a truce has long been in place between Winter
and Summer. What havoc might a human child wreak in the careful
machinations of beings older than time? And to what lengths will Abbie's
father go to get her back?
