ISBN: 9781406356618 Format: Hardcover Number Of Pages: 320 Published: 1 October 2015 Country of Publication: GB Dimensions (cm): 21.6 x 13.5 x 2.9 Description: From the Carnegie Medal-winning author of Buffalo Soldier comes the astonishing story of a young man's quest to find justice for his father. Set in eighteenth-century Devon, this is the story of Caleb, the son of a poor puppeteer. When his father is wrongfully accused of theft and sentenced to transportation, Caleb is left all alone in the world. As a mixed race boy living in an age of slavery, he has always been treated with fear and mistrust. Without his father he is more vulnerable than ever, and is forced to seek out his estranged aunt. After a body washes up on a nearby beach, a shattered Caleb finds himself involved in a dastardly plot: a plot that places him and his newfound family in mortal danger. This powerful story holds the reader in suspense as it charts the growth of a frightened boy into a brave young man.
