Alice is eighteen, living a quiet life in Kexford, and perfectly content to leave her childhood nonsense behind. She spends her days taking photographs and avoiding the suffocating expectations of Victorian society. But the dark room reveals secrets her conscious mind has locked away. When familiar, impossible faces begin appearing in her developed photographs, Alice realizes her dreams of a bizarre underground world were entirely real. And Wonderland is in terrible danger. The Queen of Hearts has tightened her tyrannical grip, twisting the whimsical realm into a nightmare of fear and execution. The Mad Hatter, the Caterpillar, and the rest of her old friends are begging for her return. To save the only place where she ever truly felt she belonged, Alice must tumble down the rabbit hole one more time. Armed with her camera and her sharp wits, she faces a decaying Wonderland filled with new dangers, dark magic, and a monarch desperate for her head. Time is running out, and Alice is already very, very late.

To survive this twisted realm and find Peter, Wendy must outsmart ruthless pirates and confront the shadows of her own heart in a thrilling adventure that changes everything.
