But a stranger saves his skin, offers him a position and everything he's always longed for -- the wonder of a home, a future free of torments, a full belly.
Though determined to prove himself to Graveling Fownd, Sprat is uneasy about his master's peculiar practices. Is it normal for painters to work from corpses? Is it common for apothecaries to conjure spirits from the netherworld's darkest corner? And what of the outlandish plot against Good Queen Bess, Elizabeth I, to ensure her sun finally sets?
The Unfit Apprentice is darkly supernatural, the sinister tale of an innocent confronting the macabre. To survive, Sprat must be tougher than toughest hide, no matter how terrified.
Not afraid of nothing.
But there's that scratching in the cellar...
