Imaginary friends, fairies and fairy tales are great fun for little girls, but thirteen-year-old Ella is too old for such things. While she has always had vivid dreams, she knows they are only that - dreams. However, when one of her dreams takes a tragic turn into reality her world falls apart. With the loss of her father, Ella is sentenced to a life in the most dreadful place - Castle County, a place that bears no resemblance to reality. Here Ella can't control where she goes when she walks the beasts, or when she dreams. She can't stop herself from hearing the voices in the halls or seeing a ghostly classmate. As she finds herself on the precipice of insanity, she has to wonder what she believes about life and death. Can people levitate, can they talk to the dead, is the Castle real, or is it all in her head?
