Seeing shadow figures never seemed strange to Dominic. They had visited him for as long as he could remember, but now he realised others didn’t see them. Was that why he was shunned and sent away to a school high on the moors? The ancient history of the moors, the military early warning system and a secret under the school, combine to lead Dominic and his new friends into danger. Who can be trusted, when the truth is hidden?
Set in 1970, on the North Yorkshire Moors, science offers a brave new world and children are taught to respect adults. Who can Dominic turn to when it is those very adults that are the threat? Stanmoor House School hides secrets and the pupils are handpicked. A special school, but some pupils are more exceptional than others. What menace lies beneath? Something watches. Something waits, but it can’t afford to wait too long!
