it is a tale of a group of youngsters caught by the spell of the Polish double-barrelled lead character Mischa Fox - the enchanter. They select him to be their god. But he has an alter ego, the fearsome Calvin Blick who complicates things. Rosa Keepe is torn between the two alter egos, and between common sense and dangerous enchantment.
