From David Almond, a 'master storyteller' Independent

Nothing is the same for Joff this summer. His dad is sick, his mum is working, there's a new kid in town. The days are long and hot, and change is in the air.

With his dog, Jet, Joff explores. The Chapel of Doom is always there, ancient and crumbling, with its warning signs and the legend of the Falling Boy.

But Joff isn't going to go past those signs ... is he?

Intense and compelling, this is a brilliant new story from the award-winning author of the bestselling Skellig.
