Synopsis
A remarkable and ultimately heartwarming story of grief, family, kindness, and being true to yourself...
Part gothic thriller and part seafaring coming-of-age story is about a strange island filled with ghosts and long-buried secrets.
On the island of Merlank, the Dead must not be allowed to linger. The very sight of their ghosts can kill you. When young Milo is thrust into the role of Ferryman following his father's sudden death, he is the one who must carry away the Dead.
Pursued by a vengeful lord and two malignant magicians, Milo must navigate strange and perilous seas where untold threats whisper in the mist. Does he have the courage and imagination to complete his urgent mission?
