Horrified by this news, and deciding that Peter Pan must not value his shadow any longer, Wendy packs the necessary items and meets with Hook to offer an exchange: Peter Pan's shadow for safe passage to and from Neverland. Wendy is informed that she is to be sent to Ireland to live with the cousin of a family friend, caring for their five children. Wendy returns home to discover that her parents had discovered her journal containing all of her stories and are disappointed in her obsession with Neverland. This earns Wendy an invitation to one of Clara and Phoebe Shesbow's literary salon-esque teas, the twins enamored with Snowball and voicing their past concerns that Wendy would become a lonely spinster. Hoping to distract Wendy from her stories with a project, her parents provide Wendy with a teacup terrier, who she names Snowball, in order to keep up with current trends. Meanwhile, Wendy, feeling rejected by Peter and growing tired of her mundane life, dreams about Captain Hook, seeking comfort from him and sobbing, while telling Hook that she still had Peter Pan's shadow. However, as Tinkerbell had assured him that his shadow was not in London, Peter Pan never returned.

Unexpected dangers and strange foes pop up at every turn, and a little pixie named Tinker Bell seems less than willing to help.īut when Captain Hook reveals some rather permanent and evil plans for Never Land, it's up to the two of them to save Peter Pan-and his world.įour years prior, while listening in on Wendy's stories about himself, Peter Pan had his shadow taken when he startled the Darlings' dog, Nana.

But Never Land isn't quite the place she imagined it would be. So when an opportunity to travel to Never Land via pirate ship presents itself, Wendy makes a deal with the devil. After nearly meeting her hero, Peter Pan, four years earlier, she still holds on to the childhood hope that his magical home truly exists.

Wendy's only real escape is in writing down tales of Never Land. The doldrums of an empty house after her brothers have gone to school, the dull parties where everyone thinks she talks too much, and the fact that her parents have decided to send her away to Ireland as a governess-it all makes her wish things could be different. Sixteen-year-old Wendy Darling's life is not what she imagined it would be. What if Wendy first traveled to Neverland… with Captain Hook?

Twisted tale straight on till morning
