Produktbeschreibung
A reclusive old man had to die before something of major proportions happened in the small seaside town of Calder Cove. Then, after a series of weird and rather extraordinary events a strange and mysterious castle is revealed - a castle that seemed to have appeared out of the darkness and silence of nowhere. Was it magic? Or was it something more sinister. In time, it is made known that the massive grey edifice is nothing beyond a school, but when the exclusively invited children finally step inside, the huge doors are locked securely behind them. They are then thrown - without warning - into the unknown. It is with great trepidation that they begin to question this, asking … is this place really a school? An answer to their dilemma begins to show itself after an intriguing visit to an Aztec pyramid that ends with the theft of a cursed ring, and the eventual disappearance of the school's bully, Neville Cormac. When some students ban together to look for him they stumble upon magical rooms and hidden passageways, a golden door and … most horrifically … their own doom!
Autorenporträt
I'm British born, retired and now living in Queensland, Australia. I have survived childhood - falling out of trees, measles, chicken pox, mumps and siblings - also a myriad of other things like relationships and marriage, being tossed off a horse, a broken leg, a broken wrist, bad TV programs, bad food, bad company and a few other bad things, not necessarily in that order ... and reasonably well, even if I do say so myself. I have two gorgeous children - one of each and grown up and doing their own thing now. I have several t-shirts for being reasonably clever at various endeavors. In my spare time I like to do stuff with needles and pins, like sewing, embroidering and cross-stitch, and playing with pencils and crayons. I also like to read, and watch funny movies. And sometimes I like to be middle-aged so that I can frock up in an underdress and a kirtle, don a veil and wimple and go and hang out in a medieval village called Victory. I now live in a brick box with my teddy bear, Paddington.
