Description
Cameron and his mom have been on the run for five years. His father is hunting them. At least, that's what Cameron's been told.
When they settle in an isolated farmhouse, Cameron starts to see and hear things that aren't possible. Soon he's questioning everything he thought he knew and even his sanity.
'It's about ghosts and terrifying danger and going mad all at once. I didn't know what was real and what was imagined until the very last page. I loved it!' Melvin Burgess
'Brilliant, page-turning and eerie. Had me guessing to the very end' Joseph Delaney
