BETWEEN

In the middle of here and there lies a place called BETWEEN.

You might pass through it every day—the step you take while daydreaming, the second you lose when you blink—never realizing you were somewhere else, if only for a breath. But sometimes you linger just long enough for BETWEEN to catch you. And keep you.

This is the story of Marda, the warden of a hidden portal between Earth and the planet Carpes. Six years ago, her family vanished into the BETWEEN—and she has never stopped searching for them.

Marda is not alone, though. On Earth—in New York City—others are being touched by the same anomaly. 

• Ben, a stockbroker consumed by financial analytics, blind to the pain he inflicts on those closest to him.

• Lily, a college graduate who can’t find a job, can’t escape her parent’s house, and is yelled at by someone—everyone—every single day.

• Tony, a young man who walked away from a promising future to care for his mother as cancer consumed her. Taking care of her is all he knows. Who is he if anything happens to her?

Their fates are bound by what waits in the BETWEEN.
