With fascination, Davie and his friend Geordie watch the arrival of
a new boy, Stephen Rose, in their town. He seems to have come from
nowhere, and when he arrives to live with his distant aunt, the
local Crazy Mary, no one envies his new home. But perhaps he's the
answer to Davie and Geordie's prayers - a secret weapon in their
war against monstrous Mouldy and his gang. Intrigued, Davie and
Geordie befriend Stephen. But they are heading innocently down a
path that brings with it a monster of an entirely unexpected
nature. Their encounter with the mysterious Stephen is as
incredible as it is menacing, and as the true story of Stephen's
past slowly emerges, Davie's life is changed for ever... A stunning
novel from the author of the modern children's classic Skellig -
winner of the Carnegie Medal and the Whitbread Children's Book
Award. David Almond is also winner of the 2010 Hans Christian
Andersen award.
