by Chris Riddell - £6.99 Pan Macmillan (2017)
paperback
ISBN 13: 9781447201748 | ISBN 10: 1447201744
A deliciously dark new offering from the award-winning author-illustrator of the Ottoline books.
Ada Goth is the only child of Lord Goth. The two live together in the enormous Ghastly-Gorm Hall. Lord Goth believes that children should be heard and not seen, so Ada has to wear large clumpy boots so that he can always hear her coming. This makes it hard for her to make friends and, if she's honest, she's rather lonely.
Then one day William and Emily Cabbage come to stay at the house, and together with a ghostly mouse called Ishmael they and Ada begin to unravel a dastardly plot that Maltravers, the mysterious indoor gamekeeper, is hatching. Ada and her friends must work together to foil Maltravers before it's too late!
Recommended for readers aged 6-9
