"A haunting new book from an author who loves to scare his readers"
Readers who like nothing more than to have shivers running up and down their spines will be delighted with Phil ‘Aveline Jones’ Hickes’ spooky new series.
Shadowhall Academy is a boarding school, all chilly corridors, creaky floorboards and rambling grounds. Lilian feels out of place when she arrives as new girl, and strange knocking sounds from the walls at night only make her feel more unsettled. She does make friends with other girls in her dorm, but the unexplained – supernatural? – events don’t stop.
Her new school harbours all sorts of secrets and old sorrows it seems – can Lilian and her friends resolve some of these before something terrible befalls one of them? As the climax approaches, you’ll find yourself turning the pages faster and faster while simultaneously dreading what’s coming next!
This is another superior and deliciously scary story from an author who really knows how to keep us on edge.

Welcome to Shadowhall Academy, where spirits haunt the school halls. A brilliantly spooky new series from the author of Aveline Jones.
I heard a tapping noise, right by my head. Like there was someone in the wall trying to get my attention...
When Lilian Jones starts at creepy, cold and bewilderingly large Shadowhall Academy, she's nervous about making friends. And when her roommates tell her the school is haunted, she thinks they're just trying to scare the new girl. But then bizarre things start happening - tapping and whispers in the walls at night, tales of missing students and strange figures in the woods. Lilian discovers that not only are the school ghost stories true, but her new friends could be in danger. So she sets out to uncover the secrets of Shadowhall Academy, whatever it takes.
