Claire Kenton does not believe in magic. The world is much too dark a place for fairy tales and lighthearted stories of children who refuse to grow up. She herself has been forced to grow up faster than she should have — ever since the day her twin brother was kidnapped.
It’s been years since Connor went missing, but now, Claire might just have a lead in London that could finally bring her closer to finding her brother. London holds more than just dark secrets about Connor’s disappearance, though. It hides dark characters too — including a boy who shouldn’t exist.
Peter would do anything to get back to Neverland, but without Tink or magic, he remains grounded in London, hunted by his own Lost Boys, and haunted by the notorious Captain Hook. Peter’s only hope to return to Neverland and restore his crumbling island just might lie with a girl who holds undiscovered magic in her veins and a hatred in her heart for the boy known as Peter Pan.
Dust isn’t your average Peter Pan retelling. The author takes a darker turn with the familiar tale, while also exploring the idea of the capacity for light and darkness in each person, the power to overcome, and learning to accept and see the beauty in ourselves.
Rated: Mild, for some dark tones and mild violence.
