Aboard the train, Elly meets an undercover spy named Aidan, who tells her that her books predict the actions of the malevolent spy agency known as The Division. When The Division tracks her down, Aidan and Elly scramble to write the fifth book’s ending while on a wild chase to stop The Division from completing their mission. But, after they are cornered by The Division, Elly’s world is flipped upside down, and she is left to contemplate what is reality and what is fiction.
