Under Platform 13 in one of London's busiest train stations is an old doorway. Behind that door is the entrance to a magical kingdom -- an island where humans live happily with mermaids, ogres, and mysterious creatures called mistmakers.

But can the rescuers -- an ogre, a hag, a wizard, and a fairy -- troop around London unnoticed?
