Carrie Willow and her brother Nick are evacuees transported to the safety of the countryside in the 1940s. There they stay with mean Mr Evans; but there’s also kind Auntie Lou, and Mr Johnny, who speaks his own language, and Hepzibah, the witch at Druid’s Grove who makes a perfect apple pie, and young Albert Sandwich, who kisses Carrie on her twelfth birthday. And then there’s the ancient skull with its terrifying curse...

For adults and young people aged eight and over.
