Nick’s frightened of spiders, dark nights and the bombs raining down on London, but not of Mr Evans, his stern guardian. Carrie’s afraid of the Screaming Skull’s ancient curse. When she does the worst thing she’s ever done, will it haunt her forever? The timeless story of two evacuees transported to rural Wales brilliantly evokes the Second World War era, and poignantly explores choice and consequence from a child’s perspective.
