A DELIGHTFUL BLEND OF MENACE, PATHOS AND MOMENTS OF DARK WIT" Ellie Merryday’s life and family are slowly falling apart but she has no conception yet of how much worse things can get. When her son James finds an alien unlike anything he’s ever seen on TV under the bushes out on the heath, apparently unconscious and wounded, he decides to take it home. But after the alien is responsible for the shocking death of someone very close to him, James realises that the game has changed. It isn’t about becoming famous anymore. It’s about staying alive. And he realises that he’s going to have to take drastic steps to protect himself and his family: to take the wounded alien in hand before anyone else gets hurt. But what preventative actions might a precocious and very inventive twelve year old take to protect his loved ones? And what repercussions might this lead to? "CREEPY & TENSE BUT WITH SUCH AUTHENTIC CHARACTERS & SETTING THAT IT FEELS REAL"
