Twelve-year-old Elliot Hooper has many problems: his mother has been behaving strangely, they are in danger of losing their farm to a mean-spirited developer, and he is failing at school, so when he finds a girl in the cowshed, and she announces that she is Virgo, an immortal constellation, it just seems part of the normal chaos--but soon he is swept up in the Gods' hunt for prisoner 42, Thanatos, Daemon of Death, whom Elliot has set free from his prison below Stonehenge.

Elliot Hooper has problems with his family and at school, but after finding a girl in his cowshed who claims to be the constellation Virgo, he and the girl must track down the other gods to help them catch Thanatos, the Daemon of Death.
