Humour and horror abound in Catherine Doyle's brand new series, as step-siblings Ted and Frankie defend their new home-turned-hotel against a collection of unruly spirits.
Ted would rather be anywhere but living in the same house as Frankie spawn-of-the-devil Stark. And Frankie wouldn't be caught dead near a coward like Ted McKenley. But too bad, their parents are now married and have poured their entire savings into turning an unexpectedly inherited mansion into a boutique hotel. At least it's big enough for the new step-siblings to stay far apart.
But when Ted encounters a disappearing housekeeper and Frankie runs into a screaming suit of armour, it turns out their rivalry is going to be the least of their problems …
Faced with a ghostly duke determined to destroy their parents' hotel dreams, Ted and Frankie find themselves reluctantly joining forces to defend their new home against an onslaught of rather fed-up spirits.
Catherine Doyle grew up beside the Atlantic Ocean in the west of Ireland. Her love of reading began with great Irish myths and legends, and fostered in her an ambition to one day write her own. She holds a first class BA in Psychology and a first class MA in Publishing from the National University of Ireland, Galway. The Storm Keeper’s Island is her debut middle-grade novel and was inspired by her real-life ancestral home of Arranmore Island, where her grandparents grew up, and the adventures of her many sea-faring ancestors. After living in Dublin City for two years, Catherine is now based in Galway but spends a lot of her time in London and the US. Follow her on Instagram
