Two brothers. One vanished friend. A world hidden in the space between the trees.When Eric and Daniel Carter wander into the familiar woods behind their home, they expect an ordinary afternoon of play. Their world changes when a wolf with orange eyes emerges from the shadows and claims their friend Hayden is trapped within an invisible realm.Desperate to help him, the brothers step through a secret portal into a colder, darker mirror of their own world. Here, ghastly creatures whisper their deepest fears, a monstrous four-eyed bird lurks beneath a silent lake and lies can twist themselves into living things.Guided by Melek, a majestic white wolf who guards the truth, and two mischievous squirrel brothers, the boys must confront the shadow both around them and inside themselves to bring Hayden home.But in a place where names hold power and courage is the only map, not everyone wants them to leave as they once were.
