Description
A mythical timeslip story about family, love, loss and memory, with an epic sea voyage at its heart, inspired by the legend of Odysseus.
It breaks Phoebe's heart to visit her grandmother, Cass. In the nursing home, Cass endlessly reworks the only painting she has never sold: a seascape inspired by childhood holidays on the Greek island of Ithaca.
Phoebe discovers a map of a place called 'Oddysseyland' in Cass's old art studio, and is mysteriously swept away to this fantasy world – which looks exactly like her grandmother's painting.
There she's caught up in a young boy's mission to find his long-lost father – a shipbuilder to King Odysseus, last seen going off to fight in the Trojan War – and faces an epic quest of her own. To seek the shape-shifting monster whose ravenous and growing power may hold the key to Phoebe fighting her own demons. Only by defeating the monster and facing her fears, will she have any hope of finding her way home and back to Cass.
