‘You shall help me find him still . . . there is nowhere for the boy to hide.’Orphan boy Cirrus Flux is being watched. Merciless rogues are conniving to steal the world’s most divine power, which they believe Cirrus has inherited.Now he faces a perilous journey through the dirty backstreets of London as a sinister mesmerist, a tiny man with an all-seeing eye, and a skull-collecting scoundrel pursue him. Cirrus must escape them. It really is not safe to give such evil people such incredible power . . .
Cirrus Flux was abandoned at a Foudling Hospital by his father who, overcome with grief at the death of his wife, decided the best course of action was sailing halfway around the globe and leaving his baby boy behind. Cirrus has grown up with the only clue to his father's identity being a mysterious glowing token on a golden chain. When he is twelve years old, Cirrus' life is turned upside down. He is stalked by various rogues, clairvoyants, governors and con men who believe Cirrus has inherited the world's most divine power.
Forced to escape from the orphanage he grew up in, Cirrus is alone and friendless in London, not knowing that the secret to the power being sought lies in the token left for him by his father. All he knows is that he needs somewhere to hide and he needs it fast. Add to this an old man with a phoenix powered hot-air balloon, and a pack of very suspicious acting crows and you have one enthralling read. This historical adventure is set in London in the 18th Century and contains a marvellous mix of mystery and fantasy. For anyone aged 9 and up.
