Whenever Jake and Marisol get together, adventure follows. They have their late Nana to thank for that. Her epic trips and treasure hunts were legendary.
With the whole family reuniting for one last summer vacation at Nanaβs home, the cousins are prepared for an extraordinary trip of their own. Following a map Nana left behind, Jake and Marisol sneak out to a nearby lighthouseβthen accidentally slip into another world!Β
The World Between Blinks is a magical place, where all sorts of lost things and people wind up. Everywhere they turn, the cousins find real mysteries from history and a few they thought were just myths, from pilot Amelia Earhart to the fabled city of Atlantis.
But the man who holds the key to Jake and Marisolβs journey home doesnβt want to be found . . . and if the cousins donβt catch him fast, they could end up lost in this world forever.
This first book in an exciting, fast-paced fantasy adventure seriesβfeaturing fun, interesting facts about historyββis perfect for fans of Chris Colferβs Land of Stories and Margaret Peterson Haddixβs The Missing series!
