The Lake and the Library

1 May 2013

Wishing for something out of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, something beyond her adventureless life, 16-year-old Ash is counting down the days until she and her mother move away from their prairie hometown of Treade. It's Ash's summer of goodbyes until she finds a way into the mysterious, condemned building on the outskirts of town that has haunted her childhood with secrets and questions. What she finds inside -- or what finds her -- is an untouched library, inhabited by an enchanting mute named Li. Brightened by Li's charm and his indulgence in her imagination, Ash becomes locked in a world of dusty books and dying memories, with Li becoming the attachment to Treade she never wanted. As the summer vanishes underneath her, Ash must choose between the road ahead or the dream she's living before what she wants most consumes her.
