This fast-paced and exceedingly well-crafted book delivers the kind of chill on your neck that keeps you tucked well under your blankets. Strange things start happening when Max and his family move to their new seaside home to avoid the threat of war. Why does this creepy symbol keep appearing in unrelated places? And why does the clown statue in the garden enclosure seem to be beckoning to Max, as if it has a secret?

Perhaps the answers lie at the bottom of the ocean in a mysterious sunken ship, or could the lighthouse keeper be hiding something? The vivid detail conjured by The Prince of Mist will leave you spellbound.
