The Ghouls of Howlfair

'I loved Saint Valentine - it takes you straight back to being thirteen. [Protagonist] Neil knows he's not a romantic good-looking loner - he's shy, sweet, and achingly self-conscious, and therefore a delightful literary hero. I wish I'd invented him.' * Jacqueline Wilson *
'This spooky mystery is brilliantly written, VERY funny and has the BEST female protagonist I have come across in an age - in fact, I would gladly follow Molly Thompson to the Gates of Hell and back! Utterly brilliant!' * Imogen White, author of the ROSE MUDDLE MYSTERIES *
'A fabulously spooky read from the start. So refreshing to see a bold, resourceful and empathetic female protagonist who isn't afraid to stand out! I devoured this book in nearly one sitting. Nick has just made one heck of a splash onto the scene of spooky middle-grade fiction.' * Lindsay Currie, author of THE PECULIAR INCIDENT ON SHADY STREET *
Nick Tomlinson's yarn bears all the hallmarks of a good ghost story, as well as a classic detective tale, and his arch-villain, incumbent mayor Benton Furlock is a baddie in the best tradition. Featuring a fearless pairing of female investigators, and surprising, monstrous end, The Ghouls of Howlfair is just the book to get you in the mood for Halloween. * Sara Keating, The Irish Times *
