Should be back in stock very soon
It seems like another boring summer for Maria, that is until she meets Davy.
Did Davy really appear out of nowhere and why can’t anyone else see him? Is he linked to the tragic accident that happened twenty years ago? And are all the dark rumours about Paddy Breen true?
Reluctant at first, Maria agrees to help Davy on his mission of revenge. She soon finds her world turned upside down as she learns more about Davy’s past and Paddy’s secret.
An exciting and unpredictable ghost story suitable for younger readers.
'A simple, sweet story . . . an ideal book for young readers to undertake on their own'
