Awarded Gold at The BookFest Awards 2022 for Action and Adventure. The Mystery of Tully Hall is achieving global success.
Trapped in an underground cavern, terrified of a heartless thief who has left them in fear of their lives, escape for four brave young friends hangs on a malfunctioning mobile phone, a plastic bag and a stroke of genius.
The Mystery of Tully Hall is a pacey, children's thriller that tells how school holidays on a Welsh family farm turn into a heart stopping detective drama for friends Barrie, James, Jenny and Liz.
When they hear how the police simply can't crack the case of priceless antique silver stolen from a rambling country mansion, the kids decide they'll have a go. Soon, however, they're out of their depth against the evil intent of a criminal mastermind determined to deprive Britain of precious heritage, and the four tenacious investigators of any hope that they'll see daylight again.
The Mystery of Tully Hall, and the series of subsequent books to accompany it, promote in children the values of honesty, kindness, hard work and courage. Young readers will feel comfortable in a technology-enabled world while seeing too how technology can be a mixed blessing.
Blytonesque, perhaps? But for children living in a vastly changed world
