With the tide turned against the Dead, Peter and the remaining community on Wranglestone prepare to leave for town, where the comforts of the world before await them. Could this be the home that finally brings both safety and unity for all? Cooper isn’t so sure. He harbours feelings from that terrible night on the lake and worse, a secret … codename, Timberdark. With Cooper’s new found connection to the Dead, Peter’s suspicions about what he might do next grow.

The islands of Lake Wranglestone are a safe haven in a world filled with the Restless Dead. But as the lake freezes over, there’s nothing to stop them from crossing the ice. Peter has never really felt at home in a place where practicality and grit are valued above all else. He’s nothing like Cooper - the boy he’s always watched from afar. But when he is ordered to join Cooper out on the mainland, they find more than just each other. There they unearth a dark secret about Wranglestone’s past. One that forces the pair to question everything they’ve ever known.

It's a truth universally acknowledged that the seventh-born rat of the seventh-born litter is a rat in want of adventure. Tilbury Twitch Whiskers is no exception, but he doesn't know it quite yet. This is a story about the dockland rats that live alongside the Thames in London. Like us, the rats have grown with the ever-expanding city, and like us, the rats have an eye for trade and stolen goods.
