Rainbow and Mr Zed

Nell leaves home for the first time in her life to stay with her relations she barely knows, and finds herself travelling further than she imagined.

She is taken to a mysterious island where she meets a homesick ghost and his grandson, Dylan, the swimmer. But strangest of all is the lame owner of the island, Mr Zed, who has built a pillar of stars that call to Nell in the sad and sometimes frantic whispers.
