A darker return to Neverland

Kara Swanson reworks Peter Pan through Claire Kenton, whose search for her twin brother leads from a childhood loss to London and an encounter with Peter himself. Neverland is presented not as a refuge but as a threatened island, while Peter is pursued by the Lost Boys and seeking someone connected to its survival. Claire’s uncertain relationship to magic and destiny links her personal search to the unraveling history behind the familiar fairy tale. The novel places sibling separation, hidden identity, and a destabilized Neverland at the center of its fantasy conflict.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teen and young adult readers interested in Peter Pan retellings
  • Fans of fantasy shaped by family loss and sibling bonds
  • Readers seeking a darker take on Neverland and the Lost Boys

The truth about Neverland is far more dangerous than a fairy tale.

Claire Kenton believes the world is too dark for magic to be real--since her twin brother was stolen away as a child. Now Claire's desperate search points to London... and a boy who shouldn't exist.

Peter Pan is having a beastly time getting back to Neverland. Grounded in London and hunted by his own Lost Boys, Peter searches for the last hope of restoring his crumbling island: a lass with magic in her veins.

The girl who fears her own destiny is on a collision course with the boy who never wanted to grow up. The truth behind this fairy tale is about to unravel everything Claire thought she knew about Peter Pan--and herself.
