Someone is trying to kill Corrie...

Fourteen-year-old Corrie is bored at the thought of a family camping holiday with Mum and Dad and Ethan, her younger, disabled brother. Left at the camp site to look after Ethan, Corrie swims through a waterfall to escape his chatter. When she re emerges, Ethan is gone. So is the camp site... Stranded in the world of Sisterin, Corrie finds herself at a social and cultural disadvantage even before she realises someone, or something, is out to finish her for good.
