The rule following, intelligent girl, goes by the name of Alex Bailey. In the book, “The Land of Stories,” written by Chris Colfer, Alex is on a search for the most wanted criminal in all of the kingdoms, the Masked Man. Alex had reason to believe that the Masked Man is her late father, who faked his death in the real world and fled to the Fairy Tale World.

She was determined to find him, no matter how hard she had to
