A magical story where music truly can transport you!
On her eleventh birthday, music-loving Dahlia is given the key to her late mum’s grand piano. She couldn’t be happier! But when she plays a special tune with her best friend Tommy, a magic portal appears and Tommy is yanked through it.
Dahlia must launch a daring rescue mission, into a world where time has stopped, music is outlawed and Tommy has been arrested by a wicked queen. She'll need help from new friends, old rebels and possibly a broken drum to sneak in and out of the castle dungeons. But how can she possibly make it home in time for dinner?
