Bookroo's summary

Lottie's world is unraveling as her best friend Eliot battles an incurable illness. When a mysterious door in an apple tree reveals a magical realm, Lottie faces a choice: venture into a land of enchantment and danger to save Eliot, or risk losing him forever. As strange visitors arrive on her island, Lottie must navigate treacherous magic and uncover secrets that could change everything. Will she find the cure she desperately seeks, or will the magic prove too perilous? Dive into a tale where friendship and courage are tested beyond imagination.

From the publisher

For as long as Lottie can remember, the only people who seem to care about her have been her best friend, Eliot, and the mysterious letter-writer who sends her birthday gifts. But now strange things and people are arriving on the island Lottie calls home, and Eliot’s getting sicker, with a disease the doctors have given up trying to cure. Lottie doesn’t know what she can possibly do–until a door opens in the apple tree. Down through the roots is another world–a world of treacherous, beautiful, impossible magic that just might lead to a cure for Eliot.
