At the Firefly Gate

£6.99

Henry never quite fits in. He feels like an outsider – and about to become even more so when his family move to the country and the prospect of a new secondary school looms. He retreats into his shell until he meets an old woman called Dottie who tells him about her wartime romance with another Henry.

Description

Henry is not happy when his parents move from London to the village of Crickford St. Thomas. But he soon forms a friendship with an elderly neighbour, Dottie, and she starts to tell him stories about the Second World War and about another Henry who was a navigator in the RAF.

Then Henry sees a man standing at the garden gate, smoking a cigarette and surrounded by a cloud of fireflies. He appears to look straight at Henry – could he be the navigator? And what is the significance of the ghost’s appearance?
