Ada and her friends must work together to foil Maltravers before it's too late!TTrade ReviewThis solo venture is a cracking combination of rollicking mystery adventure and ghost story, beautifully illustrated and written with an outright humour aimed at children and a sly, literary wit aimed at parents reading aloud * Daily Mail *Quirky, clever and (as ever) marvellously detailed to the eye * Independent *A deliciously dark offering from the award winning author illustrator of Ottoline * Bookseller’s Buyers Guide *It is a cracker of a book.
