The Place Between Worlds: Book Two of the Walkers Trilogy

Every Walker knows it is unwise to linger in the Place-Between-Worlds. But when Kate's sentient sword, TinneHolm, is summoned there by an Ancient One, Kate must follow. And she must go alone without Ash, who is urgently needed to help their Kinsmen flee to a new and safer home. Kate is led by the glowing TinneHolm into the swirling mists and barren plains of the Place-Between-Worlds-and into deadly dangers which threaten her, the toddler King Joey, and all else she holds dear.
