A novel by a new author from Pembrokeshire, telling the story of a boy who moves from London to Pembrokeshire in the aftermath of losing his mother - though the significance of this is not explained until the end. This novel weaves the relationship between father and son, loss and adapting to new surroundings with a light touch - but it is all wrapped up in a contemporary adventure story which draws on elements of history and fantasy to create an exciting story. Running through the book also is the growing friendship between the boy and a local girl, who turns out to be somewhat of a kindred spirit.

Diane Doona is Pembrokeshire born and bred, and lives near Manorbier where her first novel is set. While her career has been as finance manager for a west Wales legal firm, she has always enjoyed history and writing, and has been a regular member of a writing group over the years. This has given her the experience to write this exciting novel for 8-11 year olds - which has been scrutinised carefully by the younger generation in her family for its enjoyment value and necessary sense of adventure and intrigue! Diane, a keen traveler, enjoys walking the Pembrokeshire coastal path around the spectacular coves near her home, with her dog for company. Little wonder that this landscape provides the backdrop for her novel.
