WELCOME TO THE TRUE WONDERLAND
In Wonderland, no one is what they seem... not even Alyssa.
Alyssa Gardner hears the thoughts of plants and insects. Even though he hides this talent from everyone, he is aware of his destiny; There is a possibility that she will be hospitalized like her mother. Similar mental illnesses have run in her family ever since her great-great-great-grandmother Alice Liddell told Lewis Carroll about her strange dreams and became the inspiration for Alice in Wonderland.
As her mother's condition worsens, Alyssa learns that her disbelief is actually based on a terrifying reality: The real Wonderland is a darker and more dangerous place than the one Lewis Carroll described. Moreover, Alyssa must go there and undergo some tests: such as drying the ocean of Alice's tears, waking up the sleepers at the tea party, and calming the terrible Monster. She includes Jeb, with whom she fell in love in the real world, in this adventure, but over time, she will be torn between Jeb, whom she trusts, and Morpheus, her fascinating and uncanny guide in Wonderland.
