   Summary

   Maya Banerjee, 27, Croydon native. Messy flat, sketchbook addict, perpetually single. One quiet Sunday she falls asleep watching The Fellowship of the Ring… and wakes up in Bree, in Peregrin Took’s body.

   She knows the movies (mostly). She does not know how to be a hobbit.

   Between mistaken identities, cultural confusion, and the inconvenient pull of a certain ranger’s gaze - who is absolutely, definitely, destined for Arwen… right? - Maya finds herself tangled in a story she only half-remembers, and one she may not want to leave.
