Based in or around Sheffield, this thrilling time-slip adventure tells the story of Michael's stumble into the past one snowy day, back two centuries where he encounters the weavers of the cotton mills and their children, and becomes involved in their struggle to survive.
Theresa Tomlinson's first title to be published was The Flither Pickers, which was followed by The Water Cat, The Secret Place, Riding the Waves (commended for the Carnegie Medal in 1991), The Rope Carrier, Haunted House Blues, Night of the red Devil and Meet Me by the Steelmen (commended for the Carnegie Medal in 1998). All of Theresa Tomlinson's books are set in the north of England - many of them on the north-east coast, an area around which she travelled extensively as a small child.
