Publisher's Summary
New York Times best-selling author Rachel Hawkins brings us a riveting middle grade fantasy-adventure perfect for fans of Lisa Graff.
The town of Journey's End may not literally be at the end of the world, but it sure feels like it to Nolie Stanhope. Spending the summer with her scientist father in the tiny Scottish village isn't exactly Nolie's idea of a good time, but she soon finds a friend: native Journey's Ender Bel McKissick.
While Nolie's father came to Journey's End to study the Boundary - a mysterious fog bank offshore - Bel's family can't afford to consider it a threat. The McKissicks' livelihood depends on the tourists drawn by legends of a curse. Still, whether you believe in magic or science, going into the Boundary means you'll never come back.
Unless you do. Albert Etheridge, a boy who disappeared into the Boundary in 1914, suddenly returns - without having aged a day and with no memory of the past 100 years. Then the Boundary starts creeping closer to the town, threatening to consume everyone within.
While Nolie's father wants to have the village evacuated, Bel's parents lead the charge to stay in Journey's End. Meanwhile, Albert and the girls look for ways to stop the encroaching boundary, coming across an ancient Scottish spell that requires magic, a quest, and a sacrifice.

Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 4–6—Hawkins's latest middle grade novel is a spooky tale of friendship and adventure set on the gloomy and fog-shrouded coast of Scotland. Nolie Stanhope isn't looking forward to spending her summer in a remote village in Scotland, until she learns about the Boundary, the mysterious fog bank lurking just off the coast of the village of Journey's End. While her scientist father searches to unearth the secrets of the Boundary, most of the residents of Journey's End seem content with fearful coexistence. When a strange boy appears on the beach and the Boundary starts moving closer to the shore, Nolie and her new friend Bel must search for the truth and find a way to stop the Boundary before it's too late. The story is well paced and suspenseful, and readers are sure to relate to the doubts and thrills as Nolie and Bel overcome their apprehension and become great friends. The family relationships are especially poignant, and several secondary characters help to progress the plot and provide tension. The dreary Scottish weather and a liberal sprinkling of Scottish slang and jargon add to the atmosphere; however, there isn't much depth to the myths and mysteries that create the Boundary, which makes the easily accomplished ending feel somewhat unsatisfying. VERDICT A suspenseful book; recommended for younger middle grade readers who would like something slightly scary that doesn't delve deeply into more ominous themes.—Laken Hottle, Providence Community Library, RI
