Review: The Turnkey
Gaby Meares
The Turnkey is a perfect book for readers in upper primary/lower secondary school who are looking for an exciting story with a supernatural setting. Flossie is a plucky twelve year old ghost who is responsible for the souls in Highgate Cemetery in London. This is not an easy task at the best of times, but our story opens in 1940 and London is being bombed by the enemy. When Flossie spies an enemy ghost in London, she is immediately suspicious and her investigations uncover a sinister plot by the Germans that could mean the loss of the war. Can Flossie and her ghostly friends save the day?
I hope Allison Rushby creates more adventures for the indomitable Flossie.
