The Good Ship

In the middle of the Atlantic, a doorway opens. Through this doorway is an island explored only by those still trapped here. Thirteen-year-old Annabelle Cross has traveled this stretch of the ocean before. In her memories, there has never been an island here. Beyond the shore in the black woods, she will find a group of children who teach her everything the island offers to those chosen to stay...forever. The children have important rules. First, no one is allowed to leave the treehouses at night because the shadows will take you to places unknown. Second, no one should ever wander into the woods alone because the paths have a strange way of changing behind you. These are two basic rules Annabelle can't seem to follow. There is the hope of escape for those eager to take it. A massive project is being built deep in the island, hidden away from those holding the children here. This insane plan will either get them killed or set them free, but this is the ultimate answer to find their way back home.
