There and Back Again


"Not all those who wander are lost. I think I ended up right where I was meant to be."

Love is timeless, it is interdimensional, unbiased, deadly, and healing, it is the most powerful force any one of us has. Myrtle learns this unspoken lesson through a misfit who saved her life.

Myrtle McKinney, an orphan, was adopted into the McKinney family. A household dominated by an abusive father, alongside her brother Patrick. A quiet girl who spends a majority of her time to herself or in fear will find confidence and bravery with the help of a kindred soul as they are drawn together by forces that go beyond the world they know, and even time itself.

Myrtle and Eddie are sucked into a disturbing mystery involving missing persons and strange beasts as the lines between fact and fiction become blurred.
