The Girl from the Portal
The Crack Between Worlds, Book I
For almost a year, Iris has been seeing things that aren't there:
- a gray field;
- a wooden bowl;
- a woman with copper hair;
- a forest of trees like old men's hands, where a boy she has never met screams a name that isn't hers.
Her family is worried, the pills don't help, and the strange psychologist she sees asks more questions than he answers.
Then one Monday afternoon she falls asleep under a tree on campus and wakes up in ruins.
The sky is white. There are no birds. The people have plant names, cook soup out of almost nothing, and pay taxes for the water they drink. The family that takes her in doesn't ask many questions. They just stare at her a moment too long, as if they've seen her before.
With nothing but her backpack, a dead iPod and a notebook where she marks the days, Iris has to learn to live in a world that isn't hers. She'll make friends, plant a field, and meet a boy with a scarred face who can't stand the sight of her. And she'll keep looking for a way back home.
But the longer she stays, the harder it gets to tell her own memories from someone else's.
