The biggest secret in Earth’s history is that everything is intelligent. Humans, animals, plants… even the deceased. Ancient magic kept the species from talking to one another… until a dog suddenly spoke up and asked his owner to help save the world.
Any other kid would have been thrilled to have a talking greyhound as a pet or to be recruited by a dead girl to stop an abomination from devouring the souls of his city. But thirteen-year-old Piers Davies of Summerday had bullies to avoid, a mother to take care of and a thousand other reasons to stay out of trouble. Nevertheless, the teenager soon found himself neck-deep in fairies, ghosts and bickering animals, most of whom considered him the sole ambassador of a species previously unknown for their intelligence - the humans.
The Ghost and the Greyhound is a harrowing adventure about tragedy, friendship, and coming-of-age in a diverse world. The Summerday Saga starts here!
