Nolan is sure he’s hit rock bottom after his mother dies and he must move in with his estranged uncle on the swanky side of Morley, Maine. But when Nolan meets kindred spirit Harlow, things definitely start to look up. Soon, the two new friends cross paths with Topher, a photographer who tells of a pond in the woods that leads to his real home, another Morley—a city-state plagued by fear and the iron grip of an evil Governor.
Nolan and Harlow don’t believe in magic portals until one day, Nolan wades into the pond and bursts out the other side in the parallel Morley. Seized by the Governor’s guards, Nolan soon pieces together that he’s traded places with his “double”—someone almost identical to him. While Harlow helps Nolan’s double fly under the radar in her Morley, on the other side of the portal, Nolan must summon all his courage to confront the malevolent Governor, save the doubles, and restore hope to a world on the brink of despair.
With its blend of adventure and suspense, Ripples takes you on an unforgettable journey that explores the power of friendship and the spirit of resilience.”
