The Moonlighters

About this book

When Theo finds himself lost in London, a flamboyant, magical figure offers him a chance of safety. 

Alistair Goodfellow and a band of runaway children – the Moonlighters – live in an abandoned hotel that comes alive at night. The Moonlighters, and Theo, it seems, can all sense magical items, and Alistair recruits them to collect four powerful Spellstones. 

Theo’s entranced by the magical experiences Alistair gifts them – flying at night! – and he loves feeling like he’s found some real friends. But there’s more to the quest for Spellstones than Alistair is telling them. Could the Moonlighters be diving headfirst into serious trouble? 

A charming magical adventure that explores themes of found family and what it means to be and to have a true friend. 

This is an inclusive cast, including a non-binary character in Alistair. It should be noted that the Moonlighters’ often tough past experiences with their families are described, though in a sensitive manner.
