"A cosy crime drama in a world of giants."
There’s quite a lot of drama in young meadow-witch Anwen’s life even before a giant crashes onto her village from the world above. A very dead giant, clearly the victim of foul play.
Accidentally whisked up into the giants’ world on a fast-growing beanstalk, and with intensely irritating trainee sorceress Cerys too, Anwen makes friends among the giants and is determined to find out who dunnit. But tracking down a murderer isn’t easy when you’re Tom Thumb sized.
Crime story meets fantasy in this new adventure from a bestselling author and both are equally well handled with clues and red herrings galore and a satisfying sense of magic throughout. Entertainment on a giant scale!
The BFG meets Murder Most Unladylike in this giant-sized whodunnit with a witchy twist, from the author of the bestselling The Train to Impossible Places.
