A cursed Neverland.

A missing shadow.

And at the center, a villain who just wants to see it all burn.

Having learned the whereabouts of her parents' killer, Arie must travel to Neverland in search of vengeance. But she isn't making the journey alone. By her side is a wizard at war with his mind, and a rival captain at war with her heart.

Nothing could have prepared them for what they find in Neverland. Lost Boys and Girls are turning up dead, and the island's magic is depleting. At the root of the chaos is a mysterious girl and her vicious Neverbeasts. Hellbent on using what little magic remains for their own gain, they leave nothing but destruction in their wake.

Only Arie and her unique combination of powers have any chance of stopping them. But with her ship capsized and a traitor in their midst, can Arie and her crew save Neverland? Or will they be the next victims of their enemy's twisted agenda?

A Land of Lost Souls is book two in the Dark and Twisted Tales series: a dark fantasy retelling inspired by The Little Mermaid and Peter Pan with nods to other fairy tales. Perfect for fans of Once Upon a Time and Pirates of the Caribbean. This retelling contains elements of strong language, graphic violence, and mental illness.
