Review Summaries
"Graeme Dury is an ordinary teenager, that is until the day that people start to ignore him. At first he thinks nothing of it but when the world begins to take a grey tinge and people miss him when he is in the room Graeme realises that the problem is very real. He has slipped into a kind of limbo in between worlds where he can see what's goin on but the world is grey and silent and he is invisible. But he is not completely alone as he discovers Jamie and Marion, two others caught in this land of limbo. Together they try to work out what is going on with their world and what will happen when the darkness comes to take over from the grey."
Neil Morey, Resident Lee Harding Scholar
