Forget the story of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland you know. Because in Umberland, the only way out is into the madness.
London is a ruin, destroyed by German bombs, ravaged by the Horologia virus, and ruled by the ruthless Captain Hanz Otto Oswald Kretschmer, whose Marauders search for and seize the children who are immune to the virus in the hope that their blood will produce a cure--their latest victim is sixteen-year-old Gwen Darling's younger sister and Gwen will do anything to get her back, even join up with Pete and his gang of Lost Boys living in a city hidden underground.
There's a rumor that the dead king of Germany is alive and is hiding in a secret land. Desperate to end the war, a plan is hatched that could put everything right again. Is one girl enough to find a long-dead king, kill the wicked queen, and save the world?
