Book excerpt: When an Earth-shattering secret has two legs, a big mouth, and a blinkered determination to get home by any means necessary, it’s up to Daisy and Aidan to stop it happening… by any means necessary! “One of the best cozy mystery series I’ve ever read!” Come and meet our feisty R.E.D. heroine, and find out why she’s such a hit with readers! From feeling like they were back in the eighteenth century, Daisy and Aidan are thrust very much into the twenty-first century. Answering a desperate call for help, they find themselves embroiled in a crazy chase across the county to stop a secret going public that must never hit the front pages. This time the puzzle is the whereabouts of a missing scarecrow, and the question of just how he intends getting ‘home’. Our story is different in another, but just as scary a way too. Our intrepid heroes are separated, and neither knows where the other is. For Aidan, an encounter with an old friend proves frighteningly enlightening, while Daisy discovers evidence he could well be in mortal danger, and there isn’t a lot of time to save his life… or the situation. Neither of them realise the secret they’re chasing is hardly the secret they thought it was. As an ever-increasing number of friends and enemies join the battle for the same pot of gold, the yellow brick road starts to look more like a four-lane highway, and the end of the rainbow seems to be ever further away. Who will be the first to make Emerald City in one piece? With the spoils just out of sight over the horizon, that’s anyone’s guess! ‘The Terrifying Tale of the Homesick Scarecrow’ is the fifth book in the hilarious Daisy series, and like the others, is not exactly what you might expect! Check out the whole series, and everything else we create, on the r t green website. And enjoy!
