    The Disappearance of Tom Pile

    When bright lights are spotted above a tiny village in Dorset, the locals suspect German bombers.

    Then a boy – Tom Pile – is discovered, alone and scared.

    Tom went missing forty years ago

    One year later two French fishermen see strange lights over the channel – and discover the body of a girl, still alive.

    Both children have powers that could change the course of the Second World War. Both sides in that war want their secrets

    These are two extraordinary stories.
