Nettalyn Apiston thought she was dead. But that was before she opened her eyes to her new world, the one that was around her. Having spent the past three weeks with Myron Bentham inside his magnificent house, she wants to see her friends again. But loyalties split from the war make travel to the Ymbrynic side of things difficult. The reuniting of friends sounds like a joyous occasion, but a lot can change in three weeks.

Nettalyn Apiston, a girl with hyperacusia, or enhanced hearing, is not an ordinary girl. Well, she's peculiar even for a peculiar. She lives in Miss Grouse's Home for Special Children. There, she doesn't have many friends. When a letter arrives from her older brother Hugh, telling her to come to Cairnholm Island fast, she believes it's a chance for a fresh start. However, she ignores the urgency in the letter, and when she gets there, is completely unprepared for what she will find. I don't own Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, Ransom Riggs does. I own Nettalyn Apiston.
