After a deadly train crash, the afterlife is waiting for Dylan.
Claire McFall is from Scotland and now lives in Colorado..
She is also the author of Black Cairn Point (published in the US as The Last Witness ), which won the inaugural Scottish Teenage Book Prize.
About author(s): Claire McFall is a former English teacher whose first book, Ferryman , won the Scottish Children\'s Book Award and was long-listed for both the Branford Boase Award and the Carnegie Medal.
An international bestseller with a phenomenal following, the award-winning Ferryman (with its sequels Trespassers and Outcasts ) is in development to be a major motion picture.
But as Dylan focuses her strength on survival, with Tristan as protector, challenger, and confidant, she begins to wonder where she is truly meant to be--and what she must risk to get there.
The crossing, as ever, is perilous, with ravenous wraiths hounding the two at each day\'s end, hungry for Dylan\'s soul.
Only this time, something\'s different.
Tristan is a Ferryman , tasked with guiding Dylan\'s soul safely across the treacherous landscape, a journey he has made a thousand times before.
And the stranger sitting by the train track isn\'t an ordinary teenage boy.
But she couldn\'t be more mistaken: the bleak landscape around her isn\'t Scotland, it\'s a wasteland--a terrain somehow shaped by her own feelings and fears, a border to whatever awaits her in the afterlife.
When Dylan wakes up after her train has crashed, she thinks she has survived unscathed.
But that\'s only if she and her intriguing Ferryman can make it across the demon-infested wasteland--and if she can bear to let him go.
