Summary

Shadowghast: An Eerie-on-Sea Mystery

On the eve of Ghastly Night, a hypnotic stage magician, Caliastra, checks in to Eerie-on-Sea’s Grand Nautilus Hotel. She’s arrived with her entourage to put on a show – and she claims to be related to Herbert Lemon.

Critics Review

Taylor’s magical touch makes you believe the impossible. – Catherine DoyleI think it was well-written and I think that fans of the previous books will really enjoy it. * Books Up North *This was the best book ever. It is the 3rd in the series and is absolutely fantastic book. – Reader (Age 12) * Toppsta *

This is a really good mystery book. It has a lot of action, adventure and lots of twists and turns to the plot. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.

– Reader (Age 11) * Toppsta *

This is the best book I have read in forever! In the style of the main character, Herbert Lemon, two words that go together to describe this book are magnificent and magical. Now that I have visited Eerie-on-Sea, I really wish I could stay longer and go on more amazing adventures with Herbie, Violet and Erwin. This book is worth a milky way of stars-I’m sorry I could only award it five!
