The well requires payment, but it doesn't deal in coins. It needs wishes, and its minions will drown Lizzy in its depths if she doesn't grant them. Lizzy finds herself on a quest to uncover hidden memories, bestow great wealth, and face the magical secrets that nearly destroyed her family—and that are now returning to threaten everything she has ever known.</p <p>Jake Wyatt and Choo have created a modern fable based in magic and family secrets, exploring the power—and limits—of wishes."--</p> Back cover of book.
