    Summary

    Wendy has, according to all expectations, grown up.
    Without her parents or any of her brothers around her, she is forced to survive 1930s London married to Daniel Beckwith - the worst sort of man. Every day is a challenge and a new bruise - until she manages to somehow summon none other than the infamous Captain Hook directly to her balcony.
    Each new piece of information brings more questions than answers, and Wendy finds herself itching to understand it all - the mysterious magic that allows the Captain to be called between worlds with nothing but a word, the true lore behind the Neverland of her dreams and the Captain of her nightmares, the fear surrounding her beloved Peter, why she actually looks forward to seeing the Captain again.
    This story uncovers the darkness behind the adventure we remember. It offers us a chance to take ourselves back from those who would deceive us, and write our own story. What truly dwells, after all, beyond the Second Star to the Right?

    Summary

    “Come in,” said a low, melodic tenor, and Éowyn’s heart leapt to her throat. She knew that voice. She’d heard that voice in her dreams for the last few nights.

    *

Éowyn and Faramir meet in a Wellington pub right before her move to a new job, a new city, a new start. The last thing she expects is to see him again on her first day at work . . . when Pippin introduces her to her new boss.
