THE ADVENTURERS AND THE CURSED CASTLE (Book 1, January 2019)

• #1 in the Children’s Mystery/Detective genre on Amazon Australia and  #3 in the same genre on Amazon UK

‘I’m so glad I gave in to my inner child and accepted this book. It was SO MUCH FUN. I loved the characters – Lara, Rufus and Tom are close enough in age to share interests and have fun together, but each have very distinct personalities. There is just enough mystery and adventure to keep the story moving along at the perfect pace. This is the type of book I would have devoured as a child – characters that I would want to be friends with, a cool setting, a mystery, adventure and lots fun. Even though it was a story for children, adults reading along with their little ones will not be bored.’ –bookfrolic.com

Young Lara’s mum, an Egyptologist, has to travel to Egypt over the Summer holidays while Lara’s grandparents are on a cruise, so Lara, her dog Barney and her cousin Rufus are sent to Cornwall, where their great-uncle Herb, who they’ve never met before, lives in a castle partly fallen into disrepair and said to have a curse haunting the family for generations after their ancestor, 19th-century explorer Captain Jack Kexley, brought Egyptian artefacts home with him that he shouldn’t have taken…

Lara and Rufus soon discover Herb’s eccentric ways and make a new friend, local boy Tom, whose parents work for their great-uncle. As soon as they learn that there might be a treasure hidden somewhere in the castle, that Herb has been long searching for, Laura, Rufus and Tom (accompanied by the faithful Barney) decide to investigate the clues left by Jack Kexley – but they are not alone. Two suspicious characters, who introduce themselves as historians from the British Museum, suddenly show up at Herb’s castle, and it soon becomes apparent that they’re after the treasure and will stop at nothing to get their hands on it.

Can the four young adventurers reveal the secrets that have been hidden for over a hundred years and find the hidden treasure before the unwelcome visitors?
