\”There is a boy of legend in the tales passed down in my family. He glides on the coat-tails of the sun, rides the wind, and freedom runs through his veins. His heart – so the legend goes – is wild.
The boy lived in a faraway land tucked behind a star, where pirates were still true, mermaids didn’t hide, and fairies flew through the air like autumn leaves on a windy day. He took my mother there, just like he took my grandmother, and my great-grandmother.
Just as he would come for me.\”
*
Swept away from her life in London to a place beyond the stars, Wendy’s granddaughter Daphne is torn between the boy of legend – Peter Pan, whose fate is irrevocably intertwined with her family’s – and Jem Hook, the pirate who has captured her heart against all her better judgement.
Filled with hope and heartbreak, beauty and betrayal, dreams and devastating reality, Never asks: Can we ever be free while we’re holding on to the past? And what would happen if – just once – we truly let go?
