The Turnkey is a solid, original and intriguing tale that has the perfect blend of mystery, history and paranormal activity. Flossie is a character who many young readers will connect with, despite her translucence! * Children's Books Daily * This photo was not uploaded because you have already uploaded 5 photos to this cemetery.

I am always on the lookout for strong female role models in literature and Flossie ticks all the boxes, especially her kindness we could do with more kindness in life and in afterlife. This photo was not uploaded because this cemetery already has 20 photos. Actually I feel bad even saying that, Flossie was absolutely gorgeous and I'm sure we would be friends, if she existed, which I kind of hope she doesn't because. Highly recommended - even if you don't like ghosts. Allison Rushby has cleverly woven accurate historical details, places, people and objects such as the Holy Grail and Mayan crystal skulls, through the gentle but fast-moving narrative. Many kids will read this book because the premise sounds fun to them and will. The Turnkey is full of research potential for the classroom or out of personal interest. The Turnkey of Highgate Cemetery is a great historical fantasy for children. Nothing can stop Flossie - not even being dead. Allison Rushby cleverly weaves a supernatural plot into a page-turning mystery with a fresh historical perspective and a strong heroine at its centre.
