Eleven-year-old Zenith journeys into a bizarre, macabre world within a mysterious bag where he struggles to save his older sister from a living hairball and survive a trio of bloodthirsty mouths, a sentient sawdust-stuffed giant, and other horrors.

"There's a strange bag on Zenith Maelstrom's doorstep... Zenith finds the bag's battered exterior and jagged stitches repulsive. And irresistible. Unable to keep his hands off it, he pricks his finger on the ornate clasp, unleashing a sinister, spiderlike ceature that snatches Zenith's unsuspecting sister, Apogee, and drags her inside to the horrifying and hideous world or GrahBhag. Zentih travels into the bag to bring her back, but terrors lurk within the seams, from a trio of disembodied, blood-drinking mouths to the Great Wurm, an eldritch horror who seems to have a dark, insidious purpose for Apogee. Zenith will have to dig deep to save himself and Apogee from this bizarre realm and escape the horrible bag... before it's too late." --from publisher.
