Synopsis:
On a brisk autumn day, a 13 year old boy stands on the shores of the gray Atlantic, near a silent amusement park and a fading ocean resort called the Alhambra. The past has driven Jack Sawyer here. His father is gone, his mother is dying and the world no longer makes sense. But for Jack everything is about to change. For he has been chosen to make a journey back across America and into another realm.
An extraordinary novel of loyalty, awakening, terror and mystery. Jack on a desperate quest to save his mother’s life, must search for a prize across an epic landscape of innocents and monsters, of incredible dangers and even more incredible truths. The prize is essential but the journey means even more.
