Young Will Trenom is used to crazy. He lives with his rather less-than-normal parents in a bed and breakfast run by Mrs. D and her game-show addicted husband. But even Will cannot understand why someone would want to move into a run-down old cottage that stands in the middle of a cemetery, particularly an attractive otherwise normal-looking woman such as Mrs MacGregor. And he isn’t happy when Noah Proffet, a self-proclaimed magician, shows up at the B and B because he recognises the man from a wild chase around the cemetery by an egg-juggling sumo wrestler. Noah has told Will that he is the Devil’s nephew, come to enjoy the antics of humans which he appears to find endlessly entertaining.
Things get more complicated for Will when he sees what he thinks is a ghost flying around and shrieking near the entrance to the cemetery, and then discover that the ghost is actually a banshee who is determined to take Mrs. MacGregor’s soon-to-be thirteen year-old daughter, Megan. As Will learns more about the curse that Megan lives under, he realises that he is destined to help her. But can he figure out the riddle of an incomplete wish in time to save Megan from a fate worse than death?
The Devil, the Banshee and Me is a fast-paced adventure full of moments of side-splitting humour and hair-raising terror. It will keep you breathless and reading to the very last page!
