A cache of stolen gold, a dangerous ghost seeking revenge, and a promise that's too valuable to break. These are the surprises awaiting city boy Joe when he spends the school holidays with his grandparents in the Scottish highlands.
Elizabeth Arnold has had a varied career - most recently working as a school lab technician. Her first book, The Parsley Parcel, was shortlisted for the 1995 Whitbread Award, and was adapted by CITV as Gypsy Girl. Gold and Silver Water was commended for the NASEN award.
