The Halloweeds cover

  From the acclaimed author of THE EXTINCTS comes a quirky, creepy, laugh-out-loud mystery full of carniverous plants and missing fingers! Orphaned Dan’s new home is a crumbling castle. Here, horrible Aunt Grusilla reigns supreme, tending to her mysterious graveyard garden. But why are Aunt Grusilla and her curious servants each missing a finger – and what are the hungry ‘cabbages’ in the greenhouse? As Dan struggles to solve the mystery, he encounters a chilling question: what’s the price of everlasting life? THE HALLOWEEDS is a brilliant blend of laugh-out-loud funny, a little bit creepy and a twisty-turny mystery which will leave readers guessing right up to the exciting conclusion. Features themes of ecology, immortality and growing up. Perfect for fans of Lemony Snicket or David Walliams!
