Gareth P. Jones is the author of many books for children, including the Ninja Meerkats, Pet Defenders and Dragon Detective series, and The Considine Curse, for which he won the Blue Peter Book of the Year in 2012. He lives in south London with his family. Louise Forshaw is an illustrator (and sometimes author) living in a small town in the North East, UK. She graduated with a BA (Hons) in Illustration and Animation from Newcastle College. Louise works from home in a small studio, supervised by her three noisy and very mischievous Jack Russell Terriers.
Fabulously imaginative, deliciously dark, fiendishly clever and packed with all things weird and wonderful, these are frighteningly good fun. The spook-a-licious illustrations from Forshaw are a real treat, bringing alive characters and locations and are the perfect accompaniment to the quirky, humorous and at times grisly tone set by Jones. Solving crime has never been so much fun! * A Word About Books *
