Smudge's Mark

  Simon is an O.W.N.O. (Orphan with No Options). He lives with his deranged grandfather and a horrible housekeeper, Griselda, who punishes him by making him trim her toenails with his teeth. Unable to remember anything about his mother or father, Simon is haunted by a dream of an eagle, a serpent and an angel that smells like bubblegum. Then one night his dreams change. The angel gives him a special object—the broken half of an enchanted key—that is still with him when he wakes up. The key is desired by many, but destined only for him, and it will change his life forever.
