Book description
Helen has absolutely no interest in becoming a vet like her mother.
So she isn't best pleased when asked to help an injured horse. Only
this horse isn't entirely normal . . . and nor are his friends.
Without warning, Helen is thrust into an extraordinary world full of
magical rituals, fantastical creatures and a dangerous, powerful beast
known as the Master, who would destroy it all. Everything hinges on
finding the lost Book of Wisdom before the Winter Solstice. Can Helen
work out the riddles and help her new friends to make amends for a
foolish prank? This is a wonderful mixture of fable and fiction, woven
together into an exciting race through Scotland's diverse landscapes,
accompanied by an array of creatures from mythology and folklore.
Lari Don has worked in politics and broadcasting, but is now a
full-time writer and storyteller. She grew up in the north-east of
Scotland, and lives in Edinburgh.
