A POIGNANT AND HEARTWARMING MYSTERY TALE FROM NORM KONYU, THE LEADER ANIMATOR ON BAFTA AND EMMY AWARD WINNING SERIES, HEY DUGGEE!
THE ACCLAIM AND DEMAND FOR THIS STORY BROUGHT IT FROM DIGITAL ONLY TO A DELUXE GRAPHIC NOVEL FORMAT!
When a missing child, Lucas Jones, reappears on his Uncle's doorstep in his hometown of Medford after an absence of 12 years, the brief moment of joy is clouded by mystery. Where has he been? Where is his father who disappeared at the same time? And how is it possible that Lucas is still 11 years old?
As Lucas is uncommunicative, it is left to Detective Sergeant David King and child psychologist Jean Symonds to attempt to find some answers from the few belongings Lucas returned with; little more than four Polaroids and a personal journal which speaks of his time in a place called 'The Junction'.
The story unravels through interviews, and medical and police reports, and ultimately, through visits to The Junction via the pages of Lucas' diary, jumping back and forth in time, revealing pieces of the puzzle in a mystery that keeps the reader guessing right up until the end.
Norm Konyu has been a professional animator for more years than he cares to remember, working for companies such as the BBC, Dreamworks, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network. He was Lead Animator on BAFTA and International EMMY award-winning pre-school series Hey Duggee!. A Canadian, he currently resides in the UK. The Junction is his first foray into the world of comics since being a teenager.
