The Case of the Screaming Squadger

The Merrynether Cryptofiles is a serialised prequel to the forthcoming release of the young adult fantasy novel, The Beasts of Upton Puddle.

Lilly the (often inebriated) cluricaun has pilfered Veronica Merrynether’s private journal about her discoveries on the mysterious islands of Pyronesia, and he wants to go public! Each week he rips a page from the book and posts it on Wattpad, revealing the adventures of the Merrynether team as they discover a plethora of previously unknown and bizarre species. But there is far more to Pyroneisa and its extraordinary inhabitants than they could have dreamed. A shocking secret has been kept since the dawn of life, and Mrs Merrynether is about to wish she hadn’t uncovered it.
