Publisher's Synopsis
Without speaking, everyone took a step back. "So, what do you think it..." but I never had a chance to finish my sentence. The room exploded in a cloud of noise and choking dust. A hollow metallic yell sliced through my head like the ringing of an enormous, tuneless bell. Then a pain at the back of my head broke through and I realised I was lying flat on my back, surrounded by groaning, coughing bodies. "Put your mask on!" someone was shouting."I can't see!" someone else yelled.During World War 2, government scientists occupied St Mungo's Hall. The secret machines they built promised power beyond even their wild imaginings. Then disaster struck and the military were forced to leave. Enter Sam, Hobbo, JJ, Olivia, Griff, Pam and Anna, the Black Cat Gang who, while searching for a new hideout, stumble upon the remnants of the military occupation. But they are not the only ones interested in what the boffins abandoned underneath their school.Idealism and goodness do battle with greed and foolishness until the ultimate showdown, which perhaps not all will survive.
