FORGET EVERYTHING YOU THINK YOU KNOW.

When her best friend vanishes, Ana Moon, and three strangers with powers beyond the ordinary, must confront a series of terrifying shifts in reality to bring her back.

No matter what, she’ll find her. In this universe or the next.

Ana Moon’s best friend Bea has vanished. Her house has changed. Her parents have become strangers. She has fallen into a world that is not her own.

Guided by the mysterious Malik and his Pathfinders – world-jumping guardians of hidden gateways from one world to the next, including a mute girl with fighting sticks and a boy who moves like smoke – Ana must travel across seven versions of Earth to get Bea back.

Lying in wait are the sinister Order, monstrous Reapers and a rogue Pathfinder bent of finding the elusive seventh world, and who will destroy anyone who stands against them.

To save Bea, Ana must master her own Pathfinder powers, or it won’t only be her friend who is lost forever – it will be Ana herself . . .

“First you lift. Then you float. Then you Fall.

That’s how it happens—the Falling. It’s frightening and it hurts. It feels as if your bones are being crushed. Your insides, ripped out. Your body is being force-fed through a meat grinder. It disorientates, disturbs and it dazzles the mind. Flips normal upside down, inside out and back to front. But it’s not the Falling that matters.

It’s what happens after.”

Each world is strange and vivid. Hofmeyr balances combat, intrigue, and romance as Ana evolves into a full-fledged action heroine.
