You can't buy a ticket for the Elsewhere Express. Appearing only to those whose lives are adrift, it's a magical train seeming to carry very rare and special cargo: a sense of purpose, peace and belonging. Raya is one of those lost souls. She had dreamed of being a songwriter, but when her brother died, she gave up on her own and started living his instead. One day on the subway, as her thoughts wander, she's swept off to the Elsewhere Express. There she meets Q, an intriguing artist who, like her, has lost his place in the world. Together they find a train full of wonders, from a boarding car that's also a meadow to a dining car where passengers can picnic on lily pads top a bar where jellyfish and whales swim through pink clouds. Over the course of their long, strange night on the train, they discover that it also harbors secrets - and danger: A mysterious stranger has stowed away and brought with him a dark, malignant magic that threatens to destroy the train. In investigating the stowaway's identity, Raya also finds herself drawing closer to the ultimate question: What is her life's true purpose - and is it a destination the Elsewhere Express can take her to?
