The Haunting of Drearcliff Grange School
ByPublisher Description
The stunning new novel starring the superpowered Amy Thomsett from the acclaimed author of Anno Dracula
Of course, Drearcliff Grange School was haunted.
Amy Thomsett - the girl who flies on moth wings - is confident she can solve any mystery, sleuth out any secret and defy any dark force. With her friends in the Moth Club she travels to London to take part in the Great Game, a contest of skill against other institutes of learning. In a nightmare, and in the cellars of a house in Piccadilly, Amy glimpses a spectre who might have dogged her all her life, the Broken Doll. Wherever the limping ghost is seen, terror strikes. And the lopsided, cracked-face, glass-eyed creature might well be the most serious threat the Moth Club have ever faced.

“First off, the publisher isn't doing the author any favors by not clearly marking this book as the second in a series.
That said, as nicely written as each sentence is, 95% of the sentences in this book do absolutely nothing for the story. There are way too many characters also doing absolutely nothing for the story. The amount of slang locks it's clarity down to a small region of the globe. Basically, there is a brilliant story in here dying to get out, but it just didn't get written. I'm left frustrated because the talent and a brilliant story is there... muddled too far inside the mind of the author.”
