Christopher can't remember much about his life before he came to live with Mr Absalom. Snatches of memories sometimes surface; images of his mother and father that appear suddenly before fading into the smoke, blackness and flames of the fire.

He has his mechanical friends to keep him company. They are his family now. [[ Tin by Padraig Kenny|Full Review]]
