Dogs turn into Komodo dragons, cats sometimes live on the ceiling, and cotton candy has been known to make kids fly. When a portal to another dimension opens in Sammie's little brother's closet, she and Rahul must race to find a way to close the portal before an eggplant-shaped alien invades Malsman Lake and takes over the world!

But then, one afternoon, everything changed when she came unexpectedly through the Parallax Contingency with her friend Naji Najeem, and they found themselves at the Adventura Mall in sunny Florida. Then, there happened a chance meeting with the boy who would change everything. He must have been about fourteen years old, with short dark hair spiked up in front. There was a casual spring to his step and he hummed to himself, snapping the fingers of his right hand as an imaginary tune played in his head. He broke into the widest smile she had ever seen. He tilted his head, stopped humming, and froze for a moment as they stared at each other, unblinking, as if every clock in the universe suddenly stood still. Their two worlds collide in this Clockwork Adventure, full of unusual flying machines, Automaton Robots, and travel to another dimension, where everything is not really what it seems to be.
