Summary

It's supposed to be a treat for Kit, a winter holiday by the coast with her sister Libby and their mum. But when Libby vanishes into thin air, and no one else remembers her, Kit is faced with a new reality – one in which her sister never existed.

Then she meets Story, a local boy who remembers Libby perfectly. Together they embark on a journey beyond their wildest imagination into a world steeped in ancient folklore. Can Kit and Story uncover the secret of the Twelve and rescue Libby before Time runs out?

Critic reviews

'Hauntingly beautiful, this is such a special time slip story with themes of bullying, coming of age and courage. A true love song to nature.' (Hannah Gold, author of The Last Bear)
'A remarkably compelling story which will appeal on many levels – filled with mysteries, wonders and wisdom.' (Essie Fox, author of The Last Days of Leda Grey)
'Dark, dreamy, surreal and beautiful. Liz Hyder is a sublime writer.' (Katya Balen, author of The Space We're In)
