Tower and Town, September 2024 (view the full edition)The Witchstone Ghosts - Emily Randall-Jones (Children's LitFest)If you want a spooky, spine-chilling read, this is the book for you. Autumn Albert has a peculiar skill: she can see the dead and she's quite cross about it. After the mysterious death of her father, she assumes he will appear to her, but he doesn't. Autumn and her mother, following the instructions in her father's will, leave for Imber, a darkly mysterious island with many secrets and a troubled past, and here is where the drama unfolds. This is a heartfelt tale of family and love, with a fresh take on ghosts and witches. Former St John's students Matthew Fox and Emily Randall-Jones will be discussing their books in St Mary's Church Hall at 2.30pm on Saturday 28 September.
