Discover a magical world where lost things are found ...

Whenever cousins Jake

and Marisol get together, adventure follows. They have their late Nana to

thank for that. Her epic trips and treasure hunts were the stuff of family

legend.

This summer, with the

whole family reuniting for one last vacation at Nana's home, the cousins are

in for a legendary trip of their own.

Following a map Nana

left behind, Jake and Marisol sneak out to a nearby lighthouse - then

accidentally slip into another world ... The World Between Blinks is a magical

place, where all kinds of lost things (and people!) end up. Everywhere they

turn, the cousins find real mysteries from history - plus a few they thought

were only myths.

But the man who holds

the key to Jake and Marisol's journey home doesn't want to be found ... and

if the cousins don't catch him fast, they could end up lost in this world forever.
