"Welcome to the Whitethorn Institute. The first step is always admitting you need help, and you’ve already taken that step by requesting a transfer into our company."
There is another school for children who fall through doors and fall back out again. It isn't as friendly as Eleanor West's Home for Wayward Children. And it isn't as safe.
When Eleanor West decided to open her school, her sanctuary, her "Home for Wayward Children," she knew from the beginning that there would be children she couldn’t save; when Cora decides she needs a different direction, a different fate, a different prophecy, Miss West reluctantly agrees to transfer her to the other school, where things are run very differently by Whitethorn, the Headmaster.
She will soon discover that not all doors are welcoming . . .
Reviews
Praise for Where the Drowned Girls Go
"[Where the Drowned Girls Go] highlights the horror of a world that requires you to deny what you know to be true because it doesn’t quite fit, and it is a fantastic and tension-filled addition to the Wayward Children series."—Booklist
"The message of owning one's truth instead of losing one's individuality will resonate. Highly recommended."—Library Journal
“Outstanding . . . Throughout Cora’s harrowing adventures, McGuire’s sense of whimsy never falters . . . The result will captivate both longtime Wayward Children fans and new readers.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
