Wonders of the Invisible World

Wonders of the Invisible World

The captivating Stonewall Honor-winning novel of love, family, and ghosts of the past

Aidan Lockwood lives in a sleepy farming town, day after unremarkable day. But when Jarrod, his former best friend, suddenly moves back home, Aidan begins to see clearly for the first timeâ€”not only to feelings that go beyond mere friendship, but to a world that is haunted by the stories of his past. Visions from this invisible world come to him unbidden: a great-grandfather on the field of battle; his own father, stumbling upon an unspeakable tragedy; and a mysterious young boy, whose whispered words may be at the heart of the curse that holds Aidanâ€™s family in its grip.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Now, Aidan must find his way between the past and the present to protect those he loves, and to keep the invisible world at bay.
