Drew's life is falling apart
Mum and Dad are divorcing. He's been torn from his home to live in a different country. No friends. Bullied at school. Can it get any worse?
Then the archaeologists arrive - to dig in the shadow of an ancient Scottish tower.
And strange things happen. Odd dreams, shadowy figures, weird noises, accidents.
Is Drew's mind playing tricks? Or, as new friend Mairi insists, is it a ghost?
There's only one way to find out. Drew and Mairi must discover the secret of Coultry Tower.
The author of the Order of the White Boar sequence weaves together Scottish and Irish history in an exciting ghostly adventure for younger readers.
