About the Book

Life transitions may feel overwhelming—whether it’s a career change, loss, or personal growth. The Passage Advocate asks:
What if the life you know vanished in an instant?

Johanna Langley thought she was just taking a relaxing drive through the Colorado Rockies. However, her world is changed when a collision with another vehicle thrusts her, her boyfriend, her son and the other vehicle’s occupants into a supernatural realm.

All of their lives take a drastic turn as they face strange new abilities, hidden political schemes, and dangerous adversaries. The new companions must band together, learn to trust one another and confront the forces that threaten their survival. Only when a mysterious advocate emerges do they begin a search for answers—and a way back home.

city of levens

The City of Levens is steeped in mystery, with a vibrant marketplace filled with strange wares, townsfolk dressed in unfamiliar garb, and an air of both curiosity and suspicion toward outsiders.

Its people live without knowledge of modern technology, and their lives are governed by traditions and beliefs the group struggle to understand.

Grand Master Wizard Nicholas

As a boy, Nicholas lived in a world not unlike Johanna’s own, one of modern conveniences and a predictable reality.

His life took a dramatic turn when he found himself pursued by a shadowy, malevolent force. Fleeing for his life, he stumbled into a portal that hurled him back several centuries into a medieval world of magic and danger—a world he would come to call home.
