Children have always disappeared under the right conditions; slipping through the shadows under a bed or at the back of a wardrobe, tumbling down rabbit holes and into old wells, and emerging somewhere... else. But magical lands have little need for used-up miracle children. Nancy tumbled once, but now she''s back. The things she''s experienced... they change a person. The children under Miss West''s care understand all too well. And each of them is seeking a way back to their own fantasy world. But Nancy''s arrival marks a change at the Home. There''s a darkness just around each corner, and when tragedy strikes, it''s up to Nancy and her newfound schoolmates to get to the heart of things.
