Nin had never liked Wednesdays, but this one took the biscuit. On this
Wednesday she woke up to find that it was raining buckets and that her
brother had ceased to exist. Ninevah realises she is the only person to
remember Toby because whoever took him is about to make her disappear
too.
Enter Skerridge the Bogeyman, who steals kids for Mr. Strood. With
his spindle, he draws all memories of Nin out of her mother's head.
Nin
escapes to the Drift, the world that her new friend Jonas and Mr.
Strood inhabit. But the Drift is filled with the fabulous and the
dreadful; tombfolk, mudmen, and the spirits of the seven sorcerers who
once ruled the land.
What is the secret of the Seven Sorcerers, and
will Nin and Toby escape their fate at the House of Strood?
