About this eBook

Beware a girl in pointy shoes!

A girl wearing pointy shoes might be a witch. And the first thing a spook's apprentice learns is never, ever to trust a witch.

In this bone-chilling collection of tales, you will learn exactly why that is, as you encounter:

• a fair and beautiful woman with green scales running down her spine . . .
• a dead witch who lurks under rotting leaves and hunts for blood . . .
• Alice, Tom Ward's best friend, who once lived with one of the darkest witches of all . . .
• and a witch whose cry of revenge can kill.

The dark is all around. Who will survive?

Ratings and reviews

Imaginative short stories about the creatures of the dark. Even adults would enjoy them. I certainly did. This is the first I've read - would definitely read the others.
