Nicole Sutton's world has been turned upside down. Sixteen and suffering the fallout of a devastating family tragedy, she is forced to move away from her London home to the quiet town of Henley--and a new life she never wanted nor expected.

In the dusty cellar of her strange new house, Nicole stumbles upon a worn old journal left behind by a previous occupant.

The more Nicole reads, the more she is able to make sense of her own troubles. Because Mac's story is so much more than a journal: it is the story of a family fighting for survival in the darkest days of humanity, of hope in the face of persecution. And then there's the buried gold...

Ray Kingfisher was born and bred in the Black Country in the UK. He wrote a singularly awful novel in the early 1990s, and so concentrated on his IT/engineering career (and renovating a house) for the next fifteen years. In 2009, the urge to write broke through again, and this time he decided to learn how to do it properly. Ray now writes in a few different genres, through indecision and belligerence as much as through choice. To find out more about Ray and his stories, please visit his website at www.raykingfisher.com.
