Whispers in the Graveyard by Theresa Breslin

Whispers in the Graveyard by Theresa Breslin

‘They want me to join them. All I have to do is to reach out to them . . .’ Solomon struggles in school. He is bullied by his teachers and let down by his parents. His only refuge is in the local kirkyard, among ancient graves that lie in the shadow of the rowan tree. But when workmen uproot the tree and a dark and terrifying power is unleashed. Will Solomon be able to save himself and the people he cares about from the terrible curse within? Whispers in the Graveyard won the Carnegie Medal and has been adapted as a play. This edition features a new cover by illustrator Thomas Flintham. ‘One of those rare books that makes you want to put your life on hold for as long as it takes to finish it’ – Independent

Theresa writes with a passion. Her books have been translated into many languages, and filmed for television and dramatised on radio. She is a superb storyteller who cleverly enables her readers to stand in the shoes of her characters and see what it really feels like to be fighting against the odds. Theresa won the Carnegie Medal for 'Whispers in the Graveyard' and the Kathleen Fidler award for 'Simon’s Challenge', which was also televised. 'Kezzie' was shortlisted for the Federation of Children’s Book Group Award, was serialised in My Weekly and televised by BBC Scotland. Its sequel 'A Homecoming for Kezzie' was also serialised in My Weekly. She has also written 'Death or Glory Boys', 'Remembrance' and, for younger readers, 'Blair the Winner!', 'Name Games' and the 'Dream Master' series. 'The Medici Seal' also received wide acclaim.
