The Byways

A Novel

Neurodivergent high school student CeeCee Harper has a temper and a reputation for trouble. Angry and afraid she’ll never fit in, she makes a wrong move—and lands in the byways, a world of alleys, magic, and forgotten people...and if she doesn’t escape quickly, she’ll be trapped for good. Searching for a way out, she's lost among monsters, drug pushers, the homeless, and political upheaval, and those who will stop at nothing to keep her from leaving. A dark Alice-in-Wonderland retelling.
