   Additional Information  
 
  When Gavin is given a metal detector for Christmas, he thinks he's going to turn up tonnes of treasure. How wrong can he be? Until he discovers the playground, that is, but the treasure he finds hidden there proves far more deadly than any pirate's loot. Far, far more deadly. A cautionary tale for children who stay out after dark, written and illustrated by the increasingly spooky hand of Shaun Tan.
