Autumn Albert can see the dead – much to her annoyance.
But when her dad dies in mysterious circumstances, he’s the
one ghost who doesn’t appear.

A curious instruction in his will sends Autumn to Imber, the storm-soaked
island of his childhood: a place marked by tight-lipped
locals, strange stacks of witchstones – and even fewer ghosts.

Soon Autumn is ensnared in a dark and twisty mystery, which must
be unravelled before the sea rises up and history is doomed to
repeat itself …

The debut adventure for ages 9 and up from Emily Randall-Jones,
author of The Scream of the Whistle
