Darkus’s dad is missing – vanished from a locked room
in the Natural History Museum. The police are baffled; how can
someone disappear without a trace?
Moving in with his eccentric uncle, Darkus discovers a new friend
in a giant beetle – and it wants to communicate.
But can a boy and a beetle be friends? And can they find Darkus’s
dad together?
The first book in MG Leonard's acclaimed trilogy, followed
by Beetle Queen and Battle of the Beetles!
Featuring exotic beetles, a daring quest, a mixture of
bold male and female characters and a truly venomous villain
