Count Harken will stop at nothing to get Charlie Bone for what he did to him. One day, Charlie's grandmother brings home a mysterious painting. Having his endowment, he was tempted to just have one look at the painting. One look and that was all it took to drag him into a land he didn't want to be in.

This in one of my favorite series. If you read Harry Potter, you should read these books. I love Nimmo's books. They mystify you and make you tense until you realise it is the end. I can't wait for the next book! Seventh in the series.
