From now on, he would not so much as use a curse word—if only he could somehow get out of this. Being in a cage was intolerable to a boy so used to doing what he liked, when he liked, and answering to no one. Although he was pretending to be as nonchalant as the rest of the hard-edged boys who shared his cell, in truth, he was terrified, for even a streetwise pickpocket had much to fear in the dark, dank bowels of Newgate.The rough guards. The rats that scurried along the filthy walls. The awful... smells that carried fevers. And of course, the dozen criminal lads, his cellmates. Unlike him—in Jake’s view—they looked like they belonged here. By the time they fell asleep, he was weary down to his bones from hours of trying to look tough so they would stay away from him. At last, he was the only one left awake and could focus on planning his escape. Or so he thought. But his cellmates had no sooner dozed off than a whole new round of prisoners started arriving: the dead. Countless ghosts of the past prisoners of Newgate began floating through the mighty dungeon that had been their final home.Gooseflesh prickled down Jake’s arms; the hairs on the back of his neck stood up when he spotted the first translucent figure floating up the hallway, a mysterious orb surrounded by an eerie bluish glow.
