Discover a new world in this portal fantasy where magic is real, animals can talk, and humans are extinct in what Kirkus Reviews called "one enchanting package."
Lore Deoradán wants to be happy when she grows up. But navigating her parents' mercurial moods, moving to a new town just two weeks before her high school graduation, and dealing with her beloved grandma's declining health all make that dream seemingly impossible. Will her new job be the first step toward happiness, or will it be yet another disappointment?
When she falls down a well into a magical world with talking animals that haven't seen a human for years, she must clear her name of the mayor's murder. Although, how anyone believes she killed a Herculean-sized alligator is beyond her. Now, her survival is tied to a mouse with a chip on her shoulder. There's also a cat who owns a pub where the animal patrons might be cannibals, a giant snake librarian who probably wants to eat her, and sentient lampposts who are never there when you need them.
Can Lore prove her innocence, help a newfound friend save the town from a dark and dangerous schemer, and find her way home?

Magical mysteries, action and adventure, and ruminations on grief, all in one enchanting package.
Veronica King
Kelli (Veronica’s true name) has a deep imagination and a sail filled with ambition for the sea of opportunity ahead. As a teen, she loved consuming all media about far-off magical worlds. As an adult, she enjoys using her own spellbinding creativity to spin whimsical worlds and charming characters from thin air.
She is a proud Appalachian because you can take the woman out of the mountains, but you can’t take the mountains out of the woman. She now calls a quiet New England town home. When she isn’t crafting a story, she enjoys kitchen witchery, making art with her daughters, and making the everyday into an adventure with her spouse.
