This is the stunning new novel from Zizou Corder, author of the highly acclaimed Lionboy trilogy.
Lee Raven, boy thief, has stolen something he really didn't mean to.
Now he faces a perilous flight through London (and the murky sewers below) as he tries to escape capture - because Lee has stolen the Book of Nebo, a book that has existed for thousands of years and tells every story and legend known to man. It's priceless. Some will even kill to possess it. The pressure mounts and the future of Nebo is in Lee's hands - can he prevent the most dangerous ending of them all?
Zizou Corder is the not-so-secret identity of Louisa Young and Isabel Adomakoh Young, who have been writing together since Isabel was seven. They have previously written four books: the LIONBOY trilogy and LEE RAVEN, BOY THIEF. They wander the world in a gilded balloon, and have seventeen pet ducks and twelve minature grand pianos as well as the lizard and dead tortoise.
