The Lost Librarian (Alastair Stone Chronicles, #44)

Beyond the doorway...

Alastair Stone has been dealing with an elephant in the room—that is to say, a mysterious portal in his attic—for several months now.

When a suggestion from Trevor Harrison leads him to search for clues about who built the portal, he stumbles upon an even more mysterious coded notebook from the turn of the twentieth century, written by a man he’s never heard of.

Joining forces with Harrison, Eddie, Ward, and Gina, Stone uncovers shocking truths about the portal’s builder—along with enough information about its design that he and Harrison decide to risk investigating it.

What they find on the other side starts out shocking and only gets worse from there, as a deeply traumatic event from Harrison’s past resurfaces and puts him and Stone—along with a companion they discover inside—at mortal risk.

Even more terrifying: if Stone can’t figure out how to deal with the problem, the devastating threat they encounter inside the portal might find its way out to Earth’s dimension, causing untold catastrophe.

With Harrison out of commission, though, Stone isn’t even close to sure he’ll be able to do that on his own.
