<p>Sam and Chloe never thought they would spend the summer holidays fighting a battle against the dark past that haunts Kingsholt, a mansion inherited by Chloe's parents. A long time ago the Vikings burnt down the monastery that was built near Kingsholt. A few monks who escaped hid the monastery's treasure and dug a pit in which to bury the slaughtered monks. They swore that if anyone opened up the pit and used it for other purposes a darkness would fall over the area. Nimbus,an obsessive one-time circus hypnotist and acrobat, lives with his wife and two children in a cottage in the woods of Kingsholt. He opens up the pit and uses it for all his rubbish. With death, kidnap and madness ensuing, can Sam and Chloe and their guardian Aidan, bring back the light to Kingsholt?</p>

Homeless and desperate - how had she come to this? Sara's dad died a year ago and now her mum is seeing a new man. Sara feels like no-one loves her any more. Liam is older: 18, reassuring, and caring ... until Sara accidentally gets him into trouble with the police over his drug taking habit. Then she's forced to go on the run with him. They find a squat in London, where Sara's best friend Ruby lives with her boyfriend, but gradually they are all dragged into an underworld of drugs and homelessness. Sara and Ruby want to go home, but their boyfriends make them feel trapped and dependent ... until the police raid ... In the end it is Sara and Ruby's friendship that gets them through each day, and finally gives them the strength to find a better life.
