From the author of the STONEHEART TRILOGY comes a compelling adventure for younger fans of THE BOOK THIEF and SHADOW OF THE WIND.
Charlie Fletcher has worked in film editing for the BBC on everything from Drama to Current Affairs. He's written screenplays for Tri-Star, MGM, Paramount and Warner Bros, among others. He continues to write for the movies, and also television. He still thinks that being a film editor is a pretty damn fine way to learn about story-telling in general, and narrative structure and pacing in particular. Charlie also moved into other types of writing including magazine features, a computer game and as both a national Sunday newspaper columnist and restaurant reviewer.
