AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Foreign Devil is a young-adult horror novel. It follows the story of Tyler Norton who is abducted by pirates from the past and faces a desperate bid for freedom as well as an irresistible obsession. Long fingers from the past reach out to Tyler Norton, crossing boundaries of logic and time. In China he finds reality and illusion difficult to separate.' (Source: Back cover)
