Product Description

Amanda Craig, The Independent, 7th August, 2005

My children were begging to go back into the hot car to hear what happened next --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.


Product Description

Can two children foil an outrageous criminal plot with the help of some of the funniest and maddest ghosts ever invented?

Clawstone Castle is ancient and famous, but its elderly owners have no money. In its great park live a legendary herd of wild white cattle that have roamed there since the days of the Druids, and now their future is threatened. Rollo and Madlyn come to stay with their uncle and aunt and, with the help of a mysterious recluse in the castle library, they collect an impressive team of phantoms who agree to help them turn Clawstone into a tourist attraction. There’s a bloodstained bride, an aristocrat whose chest is permanently gnawed by a rat, a girl who was sawn in half in a circus, a pair of feet without a body, and more. Paying visitors soon pour through the gates. But then a terrible fate befalls the cattle, and the ghosts and the children find themselves facing some very sinister enemies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, 31 Aug 2005
By A Customer
As always, Eva Ibbotson has come up with a complete winner, with captivating characters, loathsome villains and a real facility to blend the realistic and plausible with complete fantasy. Her beautifully matter-of-fact tone and lively dialogue perfectly conveys the reader to her world, a world where it is never disguised that there is wickedness but where it is also suggested that intelligence, determination and decency will overcome evil.
