Two years ago, Andy Taylor’s life was turned upside down when his parents vanished without a trace. Now, at thirteen, he’s adopted by a quirky but kindhearted couple, still grieving the mysterious death of their own son, Myles. Obsessed with the unexplained, Andy decides to investigate Myles’s death himself. His search leads him to a hidden underground crypt, beneath a ruined castle, where he discovers a 13th-century suit of armor imbued with mystical power.
