Upper middle grade ghost story

A restless spirit in a house full of mysteries...

In a time-pockety gothic manor in the fens, it’s finally Caitlyn’s chance to release a trapped spirit, after watching her mentor at work. But the one bound to Ravenscourt is old, vengeful and increasingly powerful - it plays cruel games, bringing the taste of walnuts and fear. And a deadline.

Trapped in the grounds, with only ghost boy Alfie’s help, Caitlyn has just one week to investigate. Her task seems harder than she ever imagined. Does she have what it takes? And what is a hidden memory trying to tell her? Yet she must free the spirit before it endangers everyone.

For readers aged 10+ who enjoy spooky settings, spirit-activity and strong central friendships.
