Will's London family is pretty dysfunctional--a mother who has vegetated in front of the TV for years, a neatnik sister who turns out to be one of the book's big plot twists, and a father who's obsessed with digging tunnels. Doesn't sound like a book that will fly off the shelves, does it?! That's what I thought too...yet I'm now desperately trying to get my hands on the sequel, Deeper.
Will's family becomes even more dysfunctional when his father disappears. Will and his friend, Chester, discover a mysterious tunnel in the basement and launch a search for him. What they find instead makes for an adventure that has caused some reviewers to declare this series another Harry Potteresque phenom.
