Mysteries of Ravenstorm Island: Ship of Ghosts
Publisher: Orchard Books
Cousins Molly and Arthur are used to being surrounded by magic on Ravenstorm Island, so quickly become suspicious that the terrible storms causing devastation to the village of Crowsnest may not be what they seem.
Guessing there might be a link between the storm-damage and a mysterious vanishing pirate ship, they turn to their old ally Mason, a human gargoyle, to try and make sense of the mayhem. What they discover leads them into terrible danger as they must battle an ancient curse and evil ghosts if they are to have any hope of saving the island.
Accomplished story-telling, clever plotting and heroic youngsters who save the day, make for an engaging page-turner. A riveting follow-up to The Lost Children.
