AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'I darted into the cemetery and hid behind a tombstone. I hunched myself up, balancing on the balls of my feet, and peered desperately into the night, listening for whoever was out there to make another sound. It was freezing — I had trouble keeping my jaw clamped shut so my teeth didn't chatter.

'Ish's dog is gone. Vanished in a country town. Mum's on holiday, Dad's in Sydney. Ish and his bossy sister, Molly, are staying with Gran. There are no clues. Only something mysterious in the town's graveyard. Then a bully from the local school starts to blackmail Ish. Can things get any worse?'
