About this book

Lucy Hart grew up finding solace in the Clock Island books, a beloved children’s series set in a world of riddles, clocks, and secret passages. Now a struggling teacher hoping to adopt a lonely former pupil, she receives an invitation from the reclusive author Jack Masterson: a competition at his island home, with a life-changing prize. Lucy must face fellow devoted readers and the difficult truths attached to the stories that shaped her. Whimsical but emotionally direct, this is a fast, puzzle-inflected novel about imagination, grief, and the adult cost of keeping hope alive.
