Critic reviews
"Heartfelt, witty, and wonderfully original. Archie Wilson's world is in ruins. After his mother is killed in a car crash, the London boy is sent to dreary Foyers, Scotland, to live with his father-a man he's never met. In particular, the author beautifully renders Archie's evolving relationships with his father. Overall, this story will connect with kids. Cooper masterfully plays with well-worn myths and folklore to create a new Scottish tale imbued with its own playful magic." (Kirkus Reviews)
“Cooper gives a new twist to an old, enduring myth. An exhilarating, mind-expanding voyage under clam waters that opens the mysterious secrets of Loch Ness” (Kirkus Reviews)
