Nora didn't plan on staying in Ashenvale. She definitely didn't plan on the orc across the street. Kael is Engine 9's best search and rescue — enormous, quiet, and the kind of steady that makes a room feel different when he walks in.

In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself. As the ward of the wealthy Mr. Locke, she feels little different from the artifacts that decorate the halls: carefully maintained, largely ignored and utterly out of place. But her quiet existence is shattered when she stumbles across a strange book. A book that carries the scent of other worlds and tells a tale of secret doors, of love, adventure and danger. Each page reveals more impossible truths about the world, and January discovers a story increasingly entwined with her own.
