Description

At the age of nine, George's life is marked by hardship and uncertainty. With money scarce, he joins his father underground, hewing coal in the local mine. The work is grueling and the risks are high, having already claimed the life of his dad's older brother. But when a summer storm floods the mine, George finds himself trapped and face to face with a mysterious figure.

As the darkness closes in, the ghostly apparition seems to be guiding George towards safety. But can it be trusted? Will George escape the same fate as his long-lost uncle, or will the past catch up with him? This gripping tale weaves together the Industrial Revolution with the timeless world of Greek mythology, featuring stunning artwork from acclaimed illustrator Pam Smy.
