In 1982, in the small town of Simonsville, three children vanish and are never seen again. Many years later in the same town, newcomers Chelzy Stone, her brother, Matthew, and their friend, Tory, hear the haunting and conflicting stories of the missing children. Determined to unlock the mystery of their disappearance, Chelzy, Matthew and Tory, also known as The Trio, set out to solve the case. However, when they start playing a mysterious board game, they soon discover there was more to the children's disappearance than they could ever imagine. The Trio soon find themselves in an enchanted world with dangerous and trap-filled lands scattered throughout. As they encounter both benevolent and wicked creatures along the way, they realize that it will take more than magic to return home . . . or even survive the journey and succeed in their quest.

Chelzy, her brother, Matthew, and their friend, Tory, acquire a very timeworn, locked journal, unaware of the evil it contains. Upon opening the journal, The Trio, as Chelzy, Matthew, and Tory are known, and their black cat, Lady Vivian, are drawn into an unfinished fairy tale. Now infused into the story, The Trio meets the author of the fairy tale, who was also abducted into the story, and together they investigate why they were kidnapped. Working as a team, The Trio and the author discover an evil book traveler whose selfish motives endanger the townspeople and creatures of the surrounding forests.Suspense and intrigue are interwoven with magic and a diverse cast of characters throughout the fairy tale. Despite befriending creatures such as a unicorn, a centaur, and a whimsical gnome, The Trio must contend with malicious creatures, like a griffin and goblin, that help the book traveler pursue his mission. As The Trio learns more about the book traveler, they come to realize that if they don't succeed in their quest, they may never be able to return home . . . or even survive.

A very old, mysterious chest, which only certain people are able to open, falls into the hands of Chelzy, Matthew, and Tory, friends who are collectively known as The Trio. Both leery and curious about any treasures, or even dangers, that the coffer may hold, The Trio sets out to unlock the secrets of the chest. Aided by Grandpa Stone's stories of long ago, information starts to unfold, which beckons The Trio into action as pieces of the puzzle begin to come together. With magic at the helm, the chest starts revealing small clues and The Trio, after being thrust back through time, soon find themselves surrounded by a wizard, a sorceress, knights, and good and evil magical beings. Even though they befriend several unique and unforgettable creatures while traveling through bone-chilling territories and confronting sinister entities, Chelzy, Matthew, and Tory are forced to face their fears in order to survive and, hopefully, succeed in their quest.
