Description

There are musical goings-on and a mystery for Ada to solve in Goth Girl and the Sinister Symphony, the fourth beautifully illustrated adventure in the series from Chris Riddell, 2015-2017 Children’s Laureate and author of the Ottoline books.

Lord Goth is throwing a music festival at Ghastly-Gorm Hall, with performances from the finest composers in the land. Ada can’t wait, but it’s quite distracting when her grandmother is trying to find her father a fashionable new wife. And there’s a faun living in her wardrobe.

Worst of all, the gamekeeper Maltravers is up to no good and Ada must make sure everything goes to plan. Luckily, help is at hand – from a very interesting house guest . . .
