Ellis is an ordinary 17-year-old - someone who's planning to finish school and go to university like any other teenager. But, four months ago, his best friend killed himself. Returning to his home town, Ellis gets drawn into a situation in which the "old" Ellis would never have become entangled.

Review:
From the Back Cover:
‘Mahy’s cleverly structured and fast-moving book is split into time bands as the clock ticks forward and Ellis must find a way to escape. There is a strong dose of reality in the fantasy as Ellis lives a lifetime in 24 hours and learns to leave behind the past to face up to the dangerous world of adulthood.’
Guardian
''Home, holidays, free,' thought Ellis. Well not quite free, with university on the horizon. Free although his best friend is dead. Free to think about the future. Free to transform his life.'
When Ellis meets up with Jackie and three mysterious sisters, he is drawn into a number of increasingly bizarre situations. They introduce him to the Land of Smiles, where appearances are deceptive and being different is the norm. Ellis is sucked relentlessly into a drama from which he cannot escape. It's a matter of life or death, but time is against him.
The clock ticks on.
In twenty-four hours, Ellis is changed forever.
