- Synopsis
- From the Book jacket: "I SWEAR NOT TO SAY A WORD ABOUT WHAT WE DO IN THIS GAME TO ANYONE OUTSIDE..." Hayley's parents disappeared when she was a baby. Since then, she has been raised and homeschooled by her grandparents. Grandad is overworked and travels a lot; Grandma is much too strict, and never lets her meet any children her own age. When Hayley does something wrong - she is not quite sure what - her grandmother packs her off to her aunts in Ireland. To Hayley's shock, her family is much bigger than she thought; to her delight, the children all play what they call "the game," where they visit; a place called "the mythosphere." And while she plays the game, Hayley learns more about her own place in the world than she could have expected.
