Where Water Meets Land

Kiki Storm has always seen the world differently. Where others see the obvious, she notices the shadows between things. Where her friends charge forward or think logically, Kiki's mind wanders sideways to places no one else looks. It's made her feel like the odd one out for as long as she can remember. So when Kiki and her two best friends accidentally release an ancient evil from a hidden chamber deep in the woods, she blames herself.
Her strange way of seeing found that place. Her curiosity led them inside. Now the Evilness is loose, a shapeshifting darkness that can take any form, possess anyone, and whisper your deepest fears back at you. The only way to lock it away forever is to reach the tower on Evil Island, a journey across three treacherous seas, through lands inhabited by the curious Water People and the fierce Landers, and past four deadly trials that will test everything the friends have.
Logan is strong. Jonny is clever. But when the Evilness targets them, when strength fails and logic breaks down, Kiki will have to discover whether the thing that makes her different might actually be the thing that saves them all. If she can learn to trust it. Where Water Meets Land is a middle-grade fantasy adventure about friendship, self-doubt, and discovering that the way you see the world might be your greatest gift.
For readers who've ever felt like they don't quite fit in, this is a story about finding your place by being exactly who you are.
