Young Theo disappears on his family vacation to Bell Hoot. Only his sister Bea can communicate with him--and only via a mysterious glass jar. Bea must find Theo before he's tracked down by the Ledbetters, who want him for their own reasons. Fans of light fantasy who are willing to suspend their disbelief may find themselves invested in Bea's efforts.
