Embark on a magical journey in this uplifting and inspiring fantasy from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Water Moon - perfect for fans of Spirited Away, Dallergut Dream Department Store and The Starless Sea. DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS BEAUTIFUL LIMITED EDITION HARDBACK, featuring gorgeous illustrated endpapers with a scene you can colour in! Raya is a lost soul, going through the motions of life without a dream of her own. One night, on her subway ride home, Raya's thoughts wander too far. She wakes on the Elsewhere Express, a magical train that offers its passengers a sense of purpose, peace, and belonging. The journey is a chance for Raya to reimagine her life - but only if she finds her compartment before time runs out. Once aboard, Raya meets an intriguing artist named Q and together they race to find their place on the train, through a boarding car carpeted in meadow grass and along a dining carriage where passengers picnic on lilypads. But a mysterious stowaway has boarded with them, and with it a dark, malignant magic that threatens to destroy the train. The closer Raya comes to uncovering the stowaway's identity, the nearer she draws to the ultimate question: What is her life's true purpose - and is it a destination the Elsewhere Express can take her to?
