Something happens to Dan Roberts-something he can't control. Fifteen-year-old Daniel is confused about a lot of things. Why did his parents decide they must take a journey to York, England and why have they been acting so strangely since they arrived? Beyond that, what is the sense of doom and dread that Dan himself feels as he approaches certain ruins in the city? Are the moving shadows he sees on the walls real, or is he beginning to lose his mind? And what of his new friend, cab driver Joe Stanton, and their encounters with the gypsies? When they're together a strange sensation takes hold of Daniel as the distant past melds with the present and reams become reality.
