Cursed Gift?

Peter Dickinson's amazing book is absolutely amazing! Davy has a gift passed on by his ancestor - who has done a great deed for this certain man. As a reward, he was given a wish. He wished that he could read other people's minds. It is extremely scary when Davy discovers that he and his family are in serious danger because this man, who Davy had named "WOLF" is trying to kill them!
