Barnabus Kwerk lives in the biggest, fanciest house in Undle. His family are stinking rich. They' re also dreadful people. Barnabus doesn' t want to be like the rest of the Kwerks. He wants to go to school and make friends and be happy. But that isn' t possible as long as he remains trapped in the attic bedroom of the Big House. When a stranger calls one stormy night, Barnabus is fascinated. His Aunt Jemima is like no-one he has ever met before. She knows secrets - about the Kwerks' dark past, about Barnabus' s mother, and about a glorious golden machine at the centre of the Earth. She offers Barnabus a life of adventure. But every great adventure has danger at its heart.
