Herrick's EndOllie has the best intentions, with the worst results. All he wanted was to play the hero and find his missing friend—instead, he’s stumbled into a dangerous world below the streets of Boston where magic spills like blood and escape seems impossible. Salvation comes in the unlikely form of a pint-sized, purple-haired girl named Tera: Once she takes him under her wing, they navigate her fantastical realm together while plotting his safe return home. But all plans go awry when Tera herself is captured. Now Ollie must decide: Go home as planned, or stay and help Tera, like she helped him? Before long, Ollie musters his newfound courage and wacky band of not-quite-human friends to set off on yet another rescue mission. And this time, he intends to get it right.
