Star Light

By Maureen Crisp

Hidden away, four children are being kept from the outside world. What secrets do they know? Why are their lives in danger if they are discovered?

Caleb's safe world begins to crumble when he starts to hear voices that no one else can hear. His mother disappeared after she heard the voices. Will this happen to him too? How can he protect his family? The answers challenge everything he thought he knew and change his future on the planet forever.

Star Light begins the story of the Fraser family caught between worlds, hunted by aliens and holding the key to the survival of Earth.
