The Girl in the Castle
Published: September 2022
Beloved #1 bestselling authors James Patterson and Emily Raymond deliver a thrilling novel about a teen caught between two worlds and the truths that could set her free—or trap her forever.
My name is Hannah Dory and I need you to believe me.
NOW: Hannah is brought to Belman Psych, told she is suffering from hallucinations and delusions. Hannah knows the truth: she must return to the past and save her sister. Could Jordan, the abnormal psych student who seems to truly care, be the answer she’s looking for?
1347: Hannah and her village are starving to death in a brutal winter. Hannah seeks out food and salvation in the baron’s castle. If she is caught stealing, she will surely hang. But if she and her friends succeed, she’ll save everyone she holds dear.
NOW: Jordan isn’t sure what to believe, and Hannah has even bigger problems: if she doesn’t make it back, her sister will die, but if she keeps going back, she might never escape.

I have some unfortunate news. I've been having episodes where I blackout and I actually ended up in the ER with a busted head from one of the latest times. This has brought on a whole slew of appointments which just seem to be leading to more and more follow-ups and new specialists. I just don't think I can allot the time needed to continue on with this challenge. I feel it would be best to drop out at this time. I apologize for letting the team down.
