"Matiu Douglas has a bone tiki he stole from a tangi. His father's important new client wants it badly, and he has some very nasty friends. When Mat is forced to flee for his life, an unexpected meeting with a girl called Pania sets his world spinning. Suddenly he's running through the bush with a girl-clown, a dog who is way too human, and a long dead warrior. Fearful creatures from legend are rising up around him, and Mat faces a terrifying ordeal."--Back cover. Suggested level secondary.
