Eli was six when her mother disappeared off a frozen fjord in Norway under the Northern Lights and now, at age sixteen, she returns, determined to discover what really happened.
According to Arctic legend, if you whistle at the Northern Lights, they'll swoop down and carry you off forever. Eline Davis was there on the remote glacier in Svalbard, when her mother whistled, then vanished. Years later, living with her dad on Cape Cod, Eli discovers the Northern Lights will be visible there for one night. She hatches a plan to use the lights to contact her missing mother... and it works. Her mother arrives... but magical, dangerous things start happening: narwhals appearing in Cape Code Bay, meteorites landing in the yard by the hundreds, three shadowy fairytale princesses whispering ominous messages. Eli pushes her mother away, only to find a note: Find me where I left you. And so, off to Svalbard Eli goes. -- adapted from jacket.
