Witch Grannies: The Case of the Evil Schoolmaster

By Gary J Byrnes

A thrilling children's novel, which is set in Ireland and perfect for anyone aged 8 to 12 who's just discovered the joy of reading exciting fiction, but appeals to all ages. Meet Emily and Malcolm who've been sent to stay with their Grannies. Bo-ring! But their rickety train journey to sleepy Castleconnell in Ireland takes a decidedly nasty turn and they find themselves up to their necks in trouble.
See, there's an evil presence on the train, an evil presence that's been making trouble for the local youngsters. And now he needs another kid for his schemes.
Emily and Malcolm are in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Thankfully, their grannies are on hand to sort things out.
Oh, and their grannies are witches...
