She’s accompanied by her imaginary friend Hop, a voice in her head that she can’t get to go away. When she discovers a mysterious stone on the outskirts of town, Hop begins to change in ways that suggest he’s more than just a figment of her imagination. She only hopes she can keep him a secret from her prying family, who insist she behave as normal as possible.If both Henry and Penny hope to discover the mysteries of the eidolons, they first must confront the ones surrounding their families. Understanding where they came from may reveal whether or not the ECF can truly be trusted.
