When her father meets his unfortunate end, Jocelyn sails to Neverland to avenge his death. But she hadn't bargained on ticking crocodiles, lazy pirates and a troublemaking boy called Peter Pan.
a captivating mixture of fearsome pirates, a courageous and adventurous female lead character, and a sarcastic yet charming narrator. In other words, this book is absolutely fantastic!’ HUFFINGTON POST (USA)

About Heidi Schulz
Heidi Schulz is a bit of a riddle, even to herself.
Her high-school career aptitude test suggested she would be an excellent air-traffic controller, possibly because she is always thinking of a million things at once. She enjoys cooking but hates having to cook.
She loves spreadsheets almost as much as she loves creating new worlds on paper, is suspicious of giraffes and despairs of ever being normal.
