Summary
From the author of cult favourite The Wishing Game comes a Narnia-inspired fairy tale for grown-ups who still knock on the back of wardrobe door . . . you know, just in case.
Fifteen years ago, two boys went missing at a state park in West Virginia. Six months later they mysteriously reappeared. Jeremy wouldn't say where they had been, and Rafe was unable, having no memory of their time lost in the woods . . though he bears terrible scars on his back that no one can explain.
Now adults, Jeremy is a missing persons investigator with an uncanny ability to find lost and kidnapped girls. Meanwhile, Rafe has become a recluse, an artist unable to stop creating fantastical paintings and sculptures he shows to no one.
When Emilie goes to Jeremy, seeking help for her older sister who was kidnapped eighteen years earlier, he recognizes her as the girl he's been questing for all these years. Emilie is the lost princess of Shanandoah, and her sister is the queen of the fantasy world where he and Rafe spent those six magical months when they were missing.
But an old foe of Rafe's is determined to keep the three from saving Shanandoah. The only chance they have to find what was lost lies in Rafe's ability to remember who he was. But there's a very, very good reason he can't.
An incredibly moving novel of loss, love and imagination, The Lost Story is Narnia for grown-ups, a chance to revisit the magic of childhood and discover extraordinary new worlds.
