About this ebook
Bethea and her cousins are delighted to find that the Scottish castle they're visiting has a hedge maze! They head in, split up, and everything seems fine until Bethea realizes she's walked much, much further than the length of the maze...and no matter which branch she takes, she can't get out. She continues on to the center of the maze, and discovers she's no longer in Scotland—or even in her own world at all.

The Center of the Maze
My cousins Cyril, Latasha, and I pressed our noses against the cool glass of the fourth-floor window and stared out at the hedge maze that began a couple hundred yards away. Tall, dark green bushes, their leaves shining in the summer sunshine, lined gravel pathways that curved, or turned at right angles to each other. In a few places the pathways opened up to wider areas that appeared to include things made of grayish-white stone, but from this distance I couldn’t tell exactly what they were.
