A meteorite harbouring an alien lifeform crashes to Earth with horrifying consequences in this gruesome and gripping tale from master of creepy sci-fi Dan Smith. The fifth and final adventure in the Crooked Oak series.

What's slithering about deep underground ...?

When a meteorite crashes to Earth near Crooked Oak, Pete, Nancy, and Krish are determined to find it. But they’re not the only ones ...

After spotting one of their teachers up on the moor where the meteorite landed, they start to wonder if his strangely altered behaviour and appearance might be connected to the arrival from outer space. But nothing could prepare them for the horror they uncover deep down in Killburn Mine ...

Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8.
