Summary	Crafty can't remember a time before the Shole - the terrifying mist that has engulfed most of Britain, leaving those trapped in it to either die or be transformed into terrifying monsters: the aberrations. Crafty has been stuck in his family's cellar for nearly a year, his only companions his restless, whispering dead brothers and an unusually friendly aberration he names the Bog Queen. But then Crafty's life abruptly changes. He is ordered to report to the Castle where he will train as a gate grub - operators of magical portals that allow the mysterious guild of Gatemancers to explore within the Shole. To survive, Crafty will have to use every inch of his cunning - whatever the cost.
