This fantasy in the vein of The Chronicles of Narnia explores the emotional aftermath of living out of one's own time. More than five years ago, Evelyn and her siblings escaped the London Blitz by traveling into another realm. Now, having returned to her own world, Evelyn is devastated by the loss of that life. The siblings' individual journeys to the places their hearts truly belong are poignant and nuanced.
