The spine-tingling 5th book in the series: not to be read after dark! Most of the places in the books are based on real places in Lancashire, and the inspiration often comes from local ghost stories and legends; this one has a fantastic and totally unexpected final twist. The paperback of "The Spook's Battle" is published by Red Fox this month. Ages: 12+. 'Be warned, these book are seriously scary...Beautifully produced and consistently surprising...an annual treat' Amanda Craig
