Twelve-year-old Miranda's new home is a dull seaside town, the sort of place where nothing ever happens.

But things do begin to happen. Weird things. At school, Miranda meets a group of friends who seem to know something of what's going on.

Together they set out to uncover the mystery . and fast, before the evil that's shadowing her unleashes destruction. And to play her part, Miranda must face both the darkness within and the evil without.
