Before the Lost Boys, Tinker Bell ran with a different crowd--an anxious pirate, an apathetic mermaid, an enthusiastic shapeshifter, and the adventurous Tiger Lily. The one thing they all have in common? They've noticed strange and disturbing occurrences around the island. Wildlife is disappearing. The weather is volatile. Pockets of land are scorched. Could Never Land be dying?

Tink ventures off to London in search of answers. While stranded there by the rain, she spends time with the most curious humans--James, a young inventor whose passion rivals her own; and Peter, a charismatic storyteller. And she grows attached to the orphans James and Peter look after at the boys' hospital.

Wondering if they can help each other, Tink takes the boys back to Never Land--where a perfect storm awaits. Power-hungry pirates, betrayal, heartbreak, and an unforgiving ticking clock. Soon Tink must forge a new path and imagine a new future for Never Land . . . or lose everything she's grown to love.

Filled with adventure, intrigue, and romance, Tinker Bell explores what happened before once upon a time....
