Between Worlds follows Luna, a quiet girl with an unusual gift-she can see ghosts. Not just shadows or whispers, but full stories waiting to be heard. To her, the dead aren't gone... they're unfinished. When a string of strange cases begins to blur the line between coincidence and something more, Luna crosses paths with Yuki, a by-the-book (and slightly awkward) police detective who trusts logic over superstition-until the evidence stops making sense. Reluctantly teaming up, the two form an unlikely partnership: one sees what others can't, the other tries to make sense of it. Together, they navigate restless spirits, unresolved pasts, and mysteries that exist between the living and the dead. But the deeper they go, the more they realize that some truths aren't meant to stay buried-and some ghosts aren't ready to let go. Between Worlds is a story of connection, loss, and the fragile space between holding on and moving forward-where every spirit has a story, and every story has a cost.

FOURTEEN-YEAR-OLD Myles Cook is having a rough time. Not only has his mother run off with Jocelyn, her yoga instructor, but Myles and his dad have moved to a tiny rural island on BC's west coast to live in a log cabin. Garcia Island is nothing like Myles' old home in the city; there are no stores, the WiFi is sketchy, and let's face it, the people are strange. There's Clyde, the old guy in the silver airstream trailer who carves erotic demon sculptures, Daisy Archibald, the local coven's high priestess, and Axel Jespersen-a recumbent cyclist and angora goat farmer who is just plain nasty! Finally, there is Norm next door, a man who teaches Myles a little about llamas and a lot about life. Factor in a taxidermy raccoon (Myles' spirit animal?), a first crush, and a whole lot of growing pains, and Myles quickly discovers that truth really is stranger than fiction.

And sometimes, when things are out of your control, the smartest thing you can do is take a deep breath, let go and roll with it. (Well, you can try, right?)

They grew together and became each other's safe place. Everyone thought they were just friends. Maybe they did too... or maybe they were just too afraid to admit otherwise.

He was the opposite, warm, persistent, always orbiting around her like she was the center of his world. Somewhere between teasing arguments and silent understandings, feelings began to bloom... the kind that neither of them dared to name. Because what if saying it ruined everything?

New people. Missed chances. And suddenly, the person who once felt like home became someone they could only remember. Now, years later, they are left with echoes of a love that was never spoken... and a question that refuses to fade: If they had been braver......would they have been each other's lifetime?
