“Your size is your strength... The only question is whether you’re big
enough inside.”
Alexa Daley is a small, lively 12 year old girl that lives in
the walled city of Lathbury in the Land of Elyon. Alexa is 4’6’’ and always has
her honey-blond hair in a braid. However, every summer she visits the, also
walled, city of Bridewell where her father is mayor. The road on which she
traveled is also within large, 10 foot high walls.
All her life, Alexa is within these immense walls which protect her and the cities from the so-called unnamed evil in The Dark Hills which lie outside the wall. Every year she yearns to explore what lies beyond the walls. But every time she tries to search, the mean, nasty captain of the guards, Pervis Kotcher stops her in her tracks before she can even begin.
What is the unspoken of monster outside? Nobody knows. Well, nobody except for maybe the traveler and founder of Bridewell and the walls, whom of which also happen to be one of Alexa’s favorite people, Warvold. Just before Alexa can muster up the courage to ask him, Alexa finds Warvold dead right beside the wall.
Then when she is at one of her favorite places in the world, the library, she finds something that could transform her dull summer into one filled with dangerous journeys that tell the truth about Bridewell’s past, present, and possible future. While she unravels the truth about what lies outside, she unearths some unexpected dangers, makes some new friends, and maybe even finds a spy! Alexa’s daring sense of adventure leads her to a quest that could save or destroy Bridewell. Join our heroine Alexa in this mystery concerning her homeland’s rescue or obliteration.
