Demelza loves science – she loves it so much that she stays up late to work on her inventions.
Holly grew up in a real-life children’s book, playing the part of Drusilla in ITV’s The Worst Witch alongside Felicity Jones. After graduating she spent time working as an actor, broadcaster and cheese-seller, until one day she had the idea to pen a story about a tenacious young inventor named Demelza. Holly's days are now spent penning new stories as well as leading drama, craft and bushcraft classes for children. Charlie Sanderson is a British actor and voice artist, who has done extensive work on Broadway, in the West End and touring around the globe.

'Talking skulls, family feuds, red herrings and a spirited (in
every sense) heroine underpin this funny, fizzing debut that also
acknowledges the madness of grief.'
*The Daily Mail*
'This spooky adventure story fizzes with energy and humour. Many
children from Year 4 upwards will find plenty to enjoy about this
daring heroine and the world she lives in.'
*BookTrust*
'Wickedly exciting, vividly imagined, quirky, funny and utterly
charming. I devoured every page and now that I've finished it I
want to read it again.'
