Joan Darcy & The 27th Observer, The Telescope of Elsewhere

Joan Anne Darcy is a teenager with a secret, however she cannot recall anything. She awakens one morning in an orphanage, her memory lost. In the first hour she is told that she was moved for her own protection but by whom and why?

Over the many days after waking in a gang infested orphanage, Joan Darcy must work hard to remember a past that haunts her. Joan’s new friends help her work diligently to find the clues she desperately needs. But someone sabotaged her progress by giving Joan a toy telescope at Christmas that wasn’t what it seemed.

In Joan Darcy and The 27th Observer, The Telescope of Elsewhere, the telescope presents a unique vision of an unknown world that is little understood but powerful in imagery. Joan’s friends are certain that the telescope and her past are connected. Before any headway can be made however, their inquiries into the telescope’s images have inadvertently signaled the hunters. Unknown assailants are now closing in to collect Joan. It’s clear that they will kill anyone who stands in their way to kidnap her, even level the whole town to complete their mission.
