It’s the autumn of 2007 in London, England, and seventeen-year-old Alison Mayhew is terrified of what to make of the future. But when she follows a mysterious man with a pocket watch, she finds herself there: over two hundred years into the future at the Kapilla Institute of Archival Accuracy. 

​

But the future isn’t what she thinks. A dictatorial commander named Maria Radley has overtaken KIAA. Cue Operation Morning Sky. Alison, along with a motley crew of new friends, volunteers to aid in a plot to depose the institution’s tyrannical leader. Venturing back into Radley’s past, Alison must now find out where exactly Maria Radley went wrong—and she just might find her own path along the way. 

​

Inspired by Lewis Caroll’s beloved classic Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, debut author Laura McAsh will take readers on a whimsical adventure of friendship and the perils of growing up in the first of this planned trilogy.
