Between the Mountain and the Sky shows us the goodness that is possible when a single person--regardless of age--takes action to help another and, in the process, changes the lives of hundreds. Maggie’s story begins in suburban New Jersey, in a comfortable middle-class family that supports her decision to travel the world during a gap year before starting college. During her travels, the trajectory of her life alters when she has a surprise encounter with a Nepali girl breaking rocks in a quarry. Maggie decides to invest her life savings of five thousand dollars to buy a piece of land and open a children’s home in Nepal. That home becomes Kopila Valley Children’s Home, and eventually, the nonprofit Maggie launches, the BlinkNow Foundation, also starts the Kopila Valley School, which provides tuition-free education for more than four hundred students. Maggie and BlinkNow’s work have been recognized around the world for their innovative, sustainable work. However, this book isn’t a how-to for fledging philanthropists or nonprofit founders--it’s a coming-of-age story about a young woman suspended between two worlds, as well as the love, loss, healing, and hope she experiences along the way. And Maggie’s inspiring, intimate tale shows readers an important truth: the power to change the world exists within all of us.

In a future time, Titus Quinn is an amnesiac who believes his wife and daughter were taken from him when he and his family wandered into another universe. No one believes him until proof arrives of the existence of a place called the Entire. Titus volunteers to scout out the new realm, but only to retrieve his family. When he arrives in the Entire he discovers that time passes differently there, and he has a very long history of interactions with the rulers and beings of the place.

He now learns his wife is dead, his daughter blinded and sent as a hostage to another country within that world. This first book in the series details his daring entrance into the capital city in search of information about his daughter, the allies he gathers on his way, including a young native woman who will become an advocate for him, Ji Anzi. Titus learns where his daughter is a prisoner but he is tracked down by his Entire enemies and must flee back to earth before he finds her. He has escaped with his life once again, but in his shame for never saving his family, he vows to return, whatever the cost.
