 When Jamie O’Neill’s mother inherits a small island in Ireland, she packs the two of them and they move from Harlem to the Irish coast. Devastated by the loss of his arm from cancer, Jamie hasn’t spoken in a year and his mother hopes this will shake him out of his depression. When they arrive, they discover the island includes a lighthouse. But not just any lighthouse. This lighthouse has a secret, which only Jamie, the last descendant of an Irish king, can solve. This secret will lead Jamie and his friend Ramsey across the universe through a wormhole. And this is a secret that could change everything.  (Pennsylvania Young Reader’s Choice Awards nominee, 2008-2009)
