The shape of this universe.
Rob Biddulph's middle-grade debut: a gripping, spine-tingling werewolf duology set in the town of Moonhaven, where four curfew-breaking friends who call themselves the Moonlighters live for full-moon adventures. There have been no werewolf attacks for over forty years — until a rare and brutal one rocks the town and the friends find themselves the prime suspects, forced to run as rumours, secrets and betrayals spread and their friendships are tested to breaking point. Pitched as 'The Goonies meets the legend of the werewolf', it is a fast, atmospheric mystery brought to life with more than a hundred spectacular black-and-white illustrations by the author himself. Across the duology the truth turns out to be more dangerous than anyone imagined, blending spooky fun with heartfelt friendship.
