Will she have to make the ultimate sacrifice? Jane Doe has vanished. Her friends have scattered into the Manor – the treacherous world between worlds – desperate to find her. And in Jane’s absence, a God-King has claimed every realm, every Otherworld, that is connected to the Manor. He is victorious, and yet still, his Amber-eyed Legion hunts for his one true vessel: the one thing he needs to rule not only the Otherworlds, but the Manor itself. Only Jane can stop him. But where is she? Why did she disappear? And what will happen when she returns with no memory of her loved ones – or who she is? With a mystical relic and an old ally by her side, Jane has one last chance to find her friends and save the Otherworlds. But first, she will have to find herself …

Industry Reviews
Praise for the Jane Doe Chronicles
‘Speeding trains? He's got them. Forests with something unnerving about them? Those too, and so much more: [a] girl seeking missing kin; booby-trapped ruins; and whip tricks worthy of Indiana Jones…' –The Guardian
'Move over, Indiana Jones. Your escapades seem trivial in comparison to Jane’s. Each page brings more questions than answers in this first book of the Jane Doe duology. I didn’t want to put it down. Neither will you.' –Kids’ Book Review
'Immediately exciting and inventive, this is a thrilling story set in a universe made up of multiple worlds… Jane is a wonderful character—warm, brave and funny—and the secondary characters are equally charming. A unique and utterly compelling read. This action-packed adventure thriller will appeal to a wide range of readers aged 11 and up, and could well be our next Nevermoor.' –Books + Publishing
'[A] climactic action sequence hits every beat. Double-crosses! Triple-crosses! A daring flight in a location definitely not intended for an airplane! A massive rolling boulder! Sandstorms and scorpions! Amid all the death and betrayal, Jane’s timid, sweet flirtation with Violet comes off as positively darling... An explosive, fast-paced, snarky, high-stakes quest through an ancient haunted house.' – Kirkus
'A fantastic fast-paced exciting adventure set in a magical labyrinth of a manor with rooms that shift, booby traps and a classic bad guy who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. I highly recommend this book for kids 11+.' –Readings Kids
