"Jennifer Killick has become the go-to horror writer for readers aged nine and over … readers are as likely to howl with laughter as with terror."

– The Sunday Times

Welcome to Hazard. An ordinary town where strangeness is a way of life. A town where sinkholes appear with no warning, where people go missing way too often, and where things really do go bump in the night …

To Travis and his classmates, Hazard is home. But when they’re set a school project to investigate the history of the town, they soon realise that something strange and alien lies beneath Hazard. What can they learn from their investigations into the mysterious witch in the woods? And – if the witch really does exist – will they make it home to tell the tale …?

About the Author

Jennifer Killick is the author of Crater Lake, the Alex Sparrow series, and middle-grade sci-fi adventure Mo, Lottie and the Junkers. She regularly visits schools and festivals, and her books have three times been selected for The Reading Agency's Summer Reading Challenge. She lives in Uxbridge, in a house full of children, animals and Lego. When she isn't busy mothering or step-mothering (which isn't often) she loves to read, write and run, as fast as she can.
