Summary from publisher:
A New Yorker for all of his thirteen years, Rory Henessy has always been happy to hold his little family together. But then a magician's trick opens his eyes to Mannahatta, a spirit city that coexists along side our own Manhattan. A city inhabited by Indian sachems, warrior cockroaches, and children made entirely of papier-mache. A city built by history and legend, and ruled by the immortal Gods of Manhattan, including, Babe Ruth, Alexander Hamilton, and Peter Stuyvesant. If something or someone in the history of New York was important enough, loved enough, feared enough, imagined enough, remembered enough it is reborn in Mannahatta.
Only Rory has the power to see Mannahatta and reveal it to others. But that gift may soon be his end as he is pursued through mazes of past and present, chasing history and the chance to right Mannahatta's greatest wrong.
For fans of Percy Jackson or readers who enjoy action / adventure in a city they've always wanted to visit - in case New York.
