Allis has always been a little left of center. A tragedy leaves her nowhere to go but to her uncles in Mystic Hollow. She becomes even more secluded only to find peace at the drive-in movie theater that she owns thanks to her uncle. However, when strange creatures start to appear that she can only hear things start to get weird. Never mind the keyhole that has formed into her neck. Then a familiar face with piercing blue eyes starts to show up at the most random times and again she's the only one who can see him. Why does he feel familiar? Is she going bonkers?

Spade must get Allis to Underland. She is the only hope for the people of the land. She'll be the one to save them from the rule of their Queen. However, his ties to the Queen, an oath of his heart will prove to make it more difficult to help Allis with her mission than he ever imagined. The unusual pull he feels towards Allis isn't helping matters.

As they race against the ticking time of the pocket watch in the dark and unusual land will they have a chance to save creatures that call Underland home? Has everyone gone mad? Is there time for tea?
