What is going on in the school library?
When Col sees something that looks distinctly non-human hiding among the shelves, he reckons it must be his imagination (or his love of all things Space-related) getting the better of him. But his classmate Alicia is not so sure - and she's determined to get to the bottom of the mysterious disasters that keep befalling their school.
It's a lot more than Col bargained for at secondary school - and a lot more fun! Up to now, life at his new school has proved to be pretty uninspiring - but now it looks as though Col, and his new friend Alicia, are about to have an adventure that's out-of-this-world!
