Dreadful Acts
Book Two in the Eddie Dickens Trilogy
by Philip Ardagh
with illustrations by David Roberts
Now available!
In this eagerly awaited sequel to A
House Called Awful End, Eddie Dickens narrowly avoids being blown
up, trampled by horses, hit by a hot-air balloon, and arrested -- only
to find himself falling head over heels for a girl with a face like a
camel's and into the hands of a murderous gang of escaped convicts, up
on the misty moors, who have a "little job" for him to do.
All the old favorites are here --
including Mad Uncle Jack and Malcolm (or is it Sally?) the stuffed stoat
-- along with some worrying-looking new ones. Beware!
