Ivy & Ixos: a novella

A mysterious adventure in the Washington woods...
In the uncertain days of March 2020's pandemic, ten-year-old Ivy is sent to live with her estranged father when her aunt, a hospital nurse, is unable to care for her during lockdown. What starts as an adventure turns into a mystery, as at her father’s isolated home on a small island in western Washington Ivy finds uncanny quiet, a cabin full of hidden memories, and a family secret too strange to be believed.

For readers of all ages who enjoy tales like The Secret of Roan Inish, The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, and The Secret Garden.
