Description
โWhile Billy Bobby Burton was putting the final touches to the bedroom ceiling in his underground house,โ said Nanna, โhe uncovered a stone so dark that it looked as though heโd dug straight through to the night sky between the starsโฆ But, as the dark stone came free, so did a huge boulder. Billy Bobby Burton never saw the dark stone by the light of day.โWhen youโre twelve, youโre supposed to be too old for bedtime stories. But Benโs nanna has been telling him the same story for more than a month, and heโs sucked right in. Itโs getting so heโs more interested in hearing the next instalment than hanging out with his friends. The story is about a mysterious jewel like a dark eye that has a powerful effect on all who own it. Itโs a horror story and a love story at the same time, layered like fossils with history, suspense and mystery.
And, as the stone in the story makes its way around the world, Ben realises it is coming ever closer to him and his nanna. You never know where it might end up... ISBN:9780435075699
