The Boggart and the Monster |
|
In this companion volume to The Boggart, the mischievous shape-shifting spirit living in the Scottish Castle Keep sets out to rescue Nessie, one of his few remaining cousins. Nessie has become a shadow of his former self and can no longer protect himself from the overzealous scientists exploring his loch. In a race against time and technology, Emily and Jessup join up with the Boggart to help Nessie escape to his ancestral home. |

FROM THE AUTHOR |
|
“I had so much fun working on this book. It ‘solves’ the mystery of the Loch Ness Monster in a way nobody has ever suggested before, and which nobody is likely to believe in. Except, of course, those who know about boggarts.” |
