Witch Grannies - The Case of the Lonely Banshee

By MR Gary J Byrnes

Trouble is stirring along the River Shannon and this time the magic runs deep.

Emily is sound asleep when her witch grannies bundle her into the night and fly her back to Castleconnell. Something is terribly wrong on the river. A lonely banshee has begun collecting the souls of the unwary and one of the captives is Edna, Emily's beloved witch sister.

To rescue her, the grannies must follow the banshee's keening cry through misty woods, secret caves and the forgotten corners of Ireland's longest river. The path is dangerous, time is running out and the banshee is not the only threat lurking beneath the water.

A ruthless trio is hunting for gold along the Shannon and their plan involves releasing a deadly poison. If they succeed, the river and all who depend on it will suffer. Only ancient wisdom can help stop them and that means seeking the advice of the legendary Salmon of Knowledge.

Emily and her magical family must solve the mystery, outwit the villains and find a way to free the trapped souls before the river falls silent forever.

A thrilling, funny and heartwarming adventure filled with Irish folklore, brave children and unstoppable grannies. Perfect for readers aged eight to eighty who enjoy magical escapades with a touch of mischief and a lot of heart.

Witch Grannies. A story for all ages.
