Product Description

Product Description
Somebody was in there. Somebody - or some thing...There is no room thirteen in the creepy Crow's Nest Hotel, where Fliss and her friends are staying on a school trip. Or is there? For at the stroke of midnight, something peculiar happens to the door of the linen cupboard next to room l2. And something is happening to Ellie-May Sunderland, too - something very sinister...This is a gripping page-turner from a master of spooky suspense, award-winning Robert Swindells. Don't read this under the covers at midnight!

5.0 out of 5 stars Room 13 review by Chris, 12 Jul 2005
This is an exellent book for children in year 5 or 6.It's about 2 girls who discover a room 13 in the hotel they're staying at, on a school trip at Whitby, and why does Ellie-May keep going in the room at midnight.There was also someone else in there or something. It's all down to Fliss and her friends to stop this mayhem!
