Why I wrote this book
Writing for children – a dream – the joy of open minds and believing imaginations. Written for my son, Christopher, The Moonstone Tower is a ghost story that tips over into the realms of pure fantasy. With Christopher’s preferred reading habits and age range in mind, (10 – 14yrs) the story is separated into a trilogy, each part designed to be long enough to be a complete story, but not threatening in thickness of size. Packed with the weird and the wonderful, the story is fast moving and action filled. Ghosts and a touch of horror, stirred well with a bucket of goo!
Synopsis
Stephen Moonstone believes in ghosts. He has to. He sees them every day.
Working for an undercover Government organisation, The Psychic Guild, 14-year old Stephen is able to travel to a secret world of the dead, an invisible fourth dimension. Like Stephen, spirits in that dimension can move at will to the physical world, and those discontented souls among them are the source of earthly hauntings.
Real danger threatens when a spirit of pure evil escapes the fourth dimension. Stephen's task is to track the spirit down, and return it to the fourth dimension. Dangerous enough... but the spirit is not the only threat Stephen faces. The leader of an occultist group is facing death, and seeking to avoid his fate he tries to uncover Guild secrets about life after death by infiltrating Stephen's own family.
The meddling of someone with knowledge only half understood has catastrophic consequences for the Moonstone family, and for Stephen, the likelihood of everything he holds dear facing destruction.
