Tessa and Zachary have a machine that is swift and splendiferous. Every day it carries them from here to there and back again in cool calm comfort. But one morning, the machine breaks down. Tessa and Zachary are forced to venture into the world beyond its metal walls - a place of secret somethings and hidden happenings. Getting from here to there may never be the same. -- Trove
