Desperate to find anything that will bring him to the impossible magic, the Minotaur, and most of all, his best—and only—friend Elizabella, he looks through his mother’s things and finds a strange witchstone mask that leads him back. The only problem? Once the mask is on, it won’t come off. But Wreathenwold is not how Benjamiah left it. Nor are Elizabella and her father where he left them.
