Bestselling authors Amie Kaufman and Ryan Graudin invite readers into a wondrous world where lost things are found, and where two cousins must come face-to-face with the impossible. In this first book of an exciting fantasy adventure series, Jake and Marisol follow a map left by their late Nana, leading them to a magical place called The World Between Blinks. Here, they encounter real and mythical lost items and figures, such as Amelia Earhart and the city of Atlantis. However, the key to their return home lies with a man who does not wish to be found. As they race against time, the cousins must catch him, or risk being lost in this world forever. Perfect for fans of Chris Colfer's Land of Stories and Margaret Peterson Haddix's The Missing series, this fast-paced series intertwines intriguing historical facts with thrilling adventure.
