The second spellbinding novel of magic and friendship from Amy Wilson, author of A Girl Called Owl.When Angel moves to a new school after the death of her parents, she isn''t interested in making friends. Until she meets Bavar - a strange boy, tall, awkward and desperate to remain unseen, but who seems to have a kind of magic about him. Everyone and everything within Bavar''s enchanted house is urging him to step up and protect the world from a magical rift through which monsters are travelling, the same monsters that killed Angel''s parents. But Bavar doesn''t want to follow the path that''s been chosen for him - he wants to be normal; to disappear. Fighting one another as well as their fears, Angel and Bavar must find a way to repair the rift between the worlds, and themselves, before it''s too late...
