Heart of Steel

A thrilling adventure full of music and robots

Ravi is desperate. Concerts were already forbidden on the island, but now musical instruments have been banned as well! But how is Ravi going to live without his guitar? His mum and dad don’t understand his panic, but there’s something weird going on with them anyway. Ravi discovers that they sleep with their eyes wide open and with blue light shining from their ears. Zina from his class at school has also noticed strange things about her dad. At a secret place in the woods, they meet Blinker and Mink, who tell them the shocking truth. Their parents aren’t human beings. They’re robots!
