Cara’s mother has disappeared. Her father isn’t talking about it. Her big brother Max is hiding behind his iPod, and her genius little brother Jackson is busy studying the creatures he collects from the beach. But when a watery specter begins to haunt the family’s Cape Cod home, Cara and her brothers realize that their scientist mother may not be who they thought she was—and that the world has much stranger, much older inhabitants than they had imagined. With help from Cara’s best friend Hayley, the three embark on a quest that will lead them from the Cape’s hidden, ancient places to a shipwreck at the bottom of the sea.

Will she choose a side? Will she try to stop this war? Will she sit back and watch as her world is destroyed? Or will she say goodbye to both and forsake her new world of magic and things found only in your widest dreams for her old life? Or maybe even no life? Even she doesn't know. Join Lilliana on her adventure, as she goes Somewhere in Neverland.
