About the book

A mysterious graphic narrative set on the Cornish Moors which tells the story of three strange children and a peculiar journey they take across the barren windswept moors. The story is narrated in verse by a poet who follows their journey, observing seemingly significant meetings with characters who inhabit the moorland and sees the children visiting ancient locations, which all appear to point towards some underlying meaning.
