Stone
Island - an exciting children's fantasy novel.
In the year 1865 a strange event took place on the small
Island of 'Stone' just off the West Coast of Ireland.
None of the few hardy people who lived there had
experienced anything like it and windows were shuttered
and doors bolted as fear gripped the land. Violent blue
and red lightning had crackled over the five peaks of
the 'Devil's Saw' and an eerie pink glow swirled around
the hilltops, lighting the sky like a false dawn.
Then in the weeks that followed came muttered rumours of
a tall robed figure occasionally glimpsed in misty
shadows, and fishermen reported seeing and hearing
unnatural things...
But the strangest thing of all was what happened to the
Callan family. One stormy night, this nasty group of
thieving villains and a robber friend of theirs vanished
without a trace from their old stone cottage. They were
never seen or heard of again.
A hundred years later, in the Easter of 1965, a group of
four children come to stay in a house which is built
upon the site where the Callans disappeared....
What lies under the 'Devil's Saw'? Who, or what is the
Guardian?
This is an enthralling and
fascinating read, aimed at the younger reader, from a talented author.
