The Haunting of Fortune Farm

"It’s a ghost story with a thrillingly, dark Viking ‘roar’, but threaded through with such beauty and heart"

Kate Wilkinson

"Full of peril, sadness and wild joy, it's a timeslip adventure with a difference."

The Guardian

'I can honestly say, in my six years of teaching so far, I have never read a book to my class that has captivated them so much!'

Year 4 Teacher

"So vivid, so warm, so magically spun."

Piers Torday

"This book shows that you can do anything you set your mind to even if there are a few things that try to stop you along the way."
