Somewhere Between Here and There

Mrs. Mona McKorkle lived exactly as one might expect, given that she was on the cusp of withering away: she lived in a nursing home, her routine planned out by the minute, and her closest companion was a cat named Lola. Her pleasant, quiet existence was uprooted entirely when, out of the blue, a visitor named Henry Clark became one of her closer friends. Unbeknownst to Mona, Henry was not at all the pleasant man she had gotten to know: instead, he was a novice Angel of Death, which she came to know when out of the blue, he presented her with Enoch's Celestial Coat, one of the rare and precious Celestial Artifacts. 

To Mona's surprise, that's not all. The coat had been laced with Enoch's Treasure, a jewel that permits travel through space and time, and soon Mona finds herself hurtled into a new life on the continent of Viktoria. The world is entirely different from the one she knows: its white deserts and mountainous landscapes are new to her, and everything is ruled by cogs and steam. Among the strange populace, she befriends a gunslinger and a runaway child who become her close companions on this entirely foreign journey. But when she meets a strange man named George Caspian, she learns that there is more to her, and she may fit into Viktoria more than she seems to. What happens, though, when the only one she knows from Earth is gone in a sudden turn of events? Can Mona, dealing with this new knowledge, survive alone in Viktoria when nothing is as it seems?
