Profile Picture

A girl named Hetty was born in Tibet but now lives in London with her parents. She is one of few people who are known as 'marked' ones, which means that she can see and hear spirits. A deceased marmot who talks, named Minky, is tasked with watching Hetty, since it is now his job after being eaten by a bird of prey. Hetty has a medallion passed that was given to her by her great grandmother, and it turns out that this medallion is able to transport her to her homeland of Tibet.  There she meets a Yeti, who saves her life, even though she is very afraid of the beast.
