"Great fun - the Children's Film Foundation with a whiff of Arthur Machen." Bob Fischer, Haunted Generation. >For over seventy years, Bert Smallwood has cared for the wildlife and flora of Penlock Forest. Now he's too old and infirm, he asks ten-year-old Debbie Carter, the closest thing he has to a granddaughter, to take on the responsibility. Tania Hunt has lived her entire life in the shadow of her legendary jewel thief father. When she hears that the forest, and one valuable asset in particular, is no longer protected, she seizes the opportunity to make a name for herself in the criminal underworld. As Debbie and her school friend Ty Grant make their way to Bert's cottage for the night, they're unaware of the dangers - both human and otherwise - that lie ahead. An exciting adventure with a supernatural edge. Bait also contains a bonus short story - Eleanor Culpepper & The Crossroads Book. >The Badgers Crossing series by Paul Childs is a collection of books and short stories set in and around the spooky county of Daxonshire. All the stories are linked but can also be read on their own and in any order. The one thing that they all have in common is that each story unlocks a small part of the mystery - why is Badgers Crossing known as The Most Haunted Town in Britain? Paul's debut book, Tales From Badgers Crossing, is available from Greenteeth Press. Bait is his first novella in the series and will be followed by a second - The Convergence - later in 2023.
