Alice's brother is missing, and she must race against the clock to find him.

After learning about her banshee heritage, Alice MacEwan is eager to share the news with her brother, Lewis. But he hasn’t been answering her calls or texts. When she hears from her brother’s fiancé, Jeremy, that Lewis has gone missing, she races to Brooklyn to help find him.

On top of that, Alice's powers have been changing since her visit to Faerie, the home world of her fae ancestors. With no teacher, because her kind were hunted nearly to extinction, she must master her new abilities alone.

And this may not be a simple missing person's case; the fae may be involved, and her brother may be in mortal danger. Together with two fae allies, they explore New York City’s underground gambling scene, the tunnels beneath the city, and its intersections with Faerie, facing perils of their own along the way.

Will they find Lewis in time? Is his disappearance related to forbidden alchemy? Follow Alice through the labyrinth as she tries to find her brother before the clock strikes thirteen and she loses him forever.

She foresaw a friend's death years ago, and now it's happening again.

Alice thought she was an ordinary woman in her 30s, living and working in coastal Connecticut, paying rent and student loans. That illusion is shattered when her best friend Sarah dies suddenly and reaches out to Alice from beyond the grave.

Things get “curiouser and curiouser” when her new colleague, Jay, turns out to be a faerie himself. He shows Alice that she’s descended from the fae and not only that, but a rare banshee! Now she must navigate through liminal spaces, places where reality is altered and those in the know can access the fantastical Faerie otherworld.

Alice soon discovers that not all mythical creatures are as warm and fuzzy as the old stories would have you believe, and she must be careful with her secret. Banshee are hunted for their oracular abilities, and her own identity becomes a threat. Fortunately, those abilities may help her solve the mystery of what actually happened to Sarah.

Was Sarah's boyfriend Michael responsible for her death? Can Jay be trusted, or is he hiding more than the rabbit ears under his cap? Follow Alice down the rabbit hole as she explores the strange old world of faeries, magic, and the spooky gateways between worlds.

Take the story of Alice in Wonderland flip it upside down, add the world of fae, have Alice lose her best friend and investigate if the boyfriend did it, make her a banshee and you get this fun read. This is the first book in the series so it is far from over. I love the way the other created a unique story based off of Alice which has to be one of my favorite stories.

I feel like the Alice in Wonderland storyline has been over done (will I still read each one when I come across it? YEP!), but this was such a fun take on it!

A powerful journey of magic, finding your way, and grief. I had so much fun in this world, and I can’t wait to read the next ones in the series!

If you are Alice-obsessed like me, be sure to add this one to your TBR!!
