Publisher's Synopsis
Sixteen year old Muddy Rivers has always wanted to fit in with the ""regular"" crowd. He aches for a romance with his blind friend, Poe, but knows he doesn't stand a chance. He hopes that his life as the guitarist for his band, the Accidentals, will help him accomplish gaining her attention. But then his brother disappears playing a mysterious song and Muddy is plunged into a world of music where songs come to life. He must learn to harness the power of the legendary crossroads and what lies on the other side if they are to conquer a series of trials which no one expects ""special"" or ""different"" teens to survive. Along with drummer Otis, singer Poe, and saxophonist Corey, Muddy must cross the river that is the source for all creativity. Once there, the band fights a world alive with horrors and realize their path to redemption is hindered by obstacles that may destroy them: the Tritons, vicious inhuman leaders of the strange land.
