Years ago, the Emperor used dark magic to steal all the colour from the world. Now he keeps it for himself, enjoying its life-giving power while everyone else must exist in cold shades of grey. That is, until a miracle baby is born - everything she touches turns to colour. But the child' s life is in danger from her very first breath. Soon the Emperor' s murderous Ripper Dogs and Black Coats come hunting. Can the girl and her adopted father survive in the forest - and what will it take to return colour and hope to the world?
"Pure brilliance. . . A dazzling spectrum of non-stop thrills" -- Piers Torday "It' s as magical as it is original; infused with a glittering rainbow of strange enchantments, colourful characters, and brave hearts" -- Thomas Taylor
Ross MacKenzie has been writing stories since he was seven years old, when he created an illustrated short story about a hungry crocodile named Crunchy Colin in a smuggled school jotter. His novel The Nowhere Emporium won the Blue Peter Best Story Award and the Scottish Children' s Book Award. He now splits his time between writing, his day job as a graphic designer and his wife, daughters and cocker spaniel, with whom he lives near Glasgow.
