This story is of Maia, a young woman who slips between the world we know to the world between, a world which typically is only seen by cats, babies, and mysterious old women. Maia is a slightly anxious, average millennial office worker who lives alone with her cat Marshmallow, until one day she finds herself strangely transported to the Between, a world of magic, wonder, and strange beings of all kinds. As she journeys to return to her world, she must confront her fears and use the strengths she keeps hidden from herself. Along with a poison-mixing weasel and a sentient map, she ventures forth into a world made for those with magic in their veins. What will she find in the strange world and who will she become at the end of her adventures?

Every couple of years, a girl from each village, town, and city in the kingdom is sent to the palace of the Black Queen as a tribute. And this time, twelve-year-old Sable is the one to go from her village. Sable can't say she's ever been particularly attached to her village. (Being reviled all your life can do that sometimes.) But, it's the only home she's ever known. And if she must leave, she certainly wouldn't have chosen to go live (or die, or be enslaved, it's not certain yet) under the tyrannous Black Queen. Sable also barely knows how to interact with other people. So she only hopes that she might survive in the palace in whatever capacity she can manage. Just as she has all her life.

Eighteen-year-old Natalie Gorman is a mind weaver, able to alter memories, but it is not the life she would have chosen for herself. So when Peter Sheinfeld shows up at her door, a heart-broken young man desperate to have Natalie erase the woman he had loved, he changes everything. As Natalie decides to take on this near-impossible and forbidden task, a mysterious shadow starts to haunt her, leaving behind odd clues and relics she cannot understand. Even after her best friend, a witch named Piper, insists that Natalie and Peter's sanity is on the line and that she cut ties, it is hopeless. Natalie is already too involved and perhaps falling in love, despite the risks, and with the queen mind weaver on her scent. When Natalie unveils Peter's true intentions, it is enough to shatter everything, unless she is brave enough to pick up the pieces and look into her own reflection.
