Where does the lie end and the truth begin?

As a boy, Artur Crowe sought refuge beneath a hawthorn tree and found himself in the Garden, a world believed by most to be nothing more than a bedtime story. Now fully grown, he’s spent his life trying to make something of himself in this strange world. Yet the more he tries to become one of them, the more he realizes that this place may not be as idyllic as it seems. And when the harsh truths of the world begin to come to light, he finds himself in the middle of a centuries old fight that could see the Garden restored to order, or plunged into chaos.
