Book #2 in the The Books of Elsewhere series
A spellbook may free Morton from Elsewhere, but it might find Olive first.
Olive's friend Morton is trapped in the magical world of Elsewhere, and the McMartin house's secrets are growing darker. With the guardian cats unhelpful, Olive's hope lies in a mysterious grimoire mentioned by her quirky neighbor, Rutherford. Can she find the spellbook to rescue Morton, or will its secrets ensnare her first? As Olive delves deeper, the house's mysteries threaten to unravel everything she knows. Dive into this thrilling fantasy where every corner holds a secret and every choice could be the last.
The mysteries grow deeper and the secrets darker in the second volume of the New York Times bestselling Books of Elsewhere series–perfect for fans of Small Spaces, Coraline, and James Howe’s Bunnicula classics. With no way into the McMartin house’s magical paintings and its three guardian cats reluctant to help, Olive’s friend Morton is still trapped inside Elsewhere. So when Rutherford, the new oddball kid next door mentions a grimoire–a spellbook–Olive sees a glint of hope. If she can find the McMartins’ spellbook, maybe she can help Morton escape Elsewhere for good. Unless, that is, the book finds Olive first. The house isn’t the only one keeping secrets anymore. You’ll never guess what happens next in this thrilling, chilling fantasy series, perfect for fans of Pseudonymous Bosch, Septimus Heap, and Lemony Snicket.
