About the book
In Marquette, Michigan, two young brothers are struggling with their father’s mysterious disappearance when they notice a strangely dressed girl enter their local ice cream parlor. After watching her slip inside the downtown ore dock and disappear during Orehenge---the rare alignment of the rising sun within the dock’s massive pillars---the brothers find themselves lost in the land of Vaelrün, a fantastical mirror image of the state’s Upper Peninsula. As the boys seek a way home, they discover an ancient and troubling power within themselves and clues to the whereabouts of their missing father.
