Alex was not looking forward to his holiday. Being stuck on a remote Orkney island with his overprotective mum and moody sister was unlikely to be fun. Tales of dark island folklore and mythical beasts were all that offered him hope. Alex was fascinated by the supernatural. His mum put it down to his obsession with ghost stories and suspected his autism added to his sometimes curious behaviour. Fortunately, Orkney sounded like it was no stranger to the unusual, so Alex felt he may fit in for once. What he wasn't expecting was to find himself on the adventure of a lifetime; a mysterious and dangerous quest in an ancient landscape, fraught with unseen, magical forces. The cryptic journey would push Alex to discover the extent of his own courage and sense of worth. No soul was safe if he failed - including his own.
