Oyó a una especie de fantasma. Se despertó en plena noche. ¿Qué era esa música? La joven Sylvia Carr nunca ha estado tan lejos de todo. Su madre la ha traído a este pueblo, a este lugar de silencio y bosque oscuro e interminable, pero ella añora la ciudad, las luces, sus amigos o incluso simplemente que el teléfono tenga cobertura. A altas horas de la noche escucha una música extraña, una canción inquietante, incesante e hipnótica. Es Gabriel, un niño problemático y misterioso, quien toca. Gabriel usa la más extraña de las flautas: un hueso hueco. Si lo haces lo suficientemente bien, dice, cruzarás la línea entre los vivos y los muertos. Sylvia sabe que lo seguirá hasta las profundidades del bosque… Pero, ¿encontrarán la salida?
This wonderful tale transports the reader from the city to the forests and fells of Northern England. Under a boundless starry sky, the unforgettable Sylvia Carr reconnects with the ancient past and discovers what it really means to be young in the world today. Sylvia, brave hearted and rebellious, moves into wild Northumberland from the city of Newcastle. She feels alien in this huge, silent, seemingly empty landscape, but then she meets Gabriel, a strange yet familiar boy. As they roam the forests together, she sees nature with new eyes. She becomes aware that the past is all around her, and is deep inside herself. From the wing of a dead buzzard, they create a hollow bone - the kind of flute that was created and used in rituals in the distant past. This is a book of hope and joy - a book that celebrates humanity and explores the deep connections between ourselves and nature. It is timely and original. It speaks to young people about what it really is to be a human being alive today.
