The Honourable Ratts are a distinguished family whose ancestors appeared at a time when witches were commonplace and giants roamed the land. They built their ancestral home, Clawfoot Hall, and they began collecting the Great Ratt Hoard - that is, any and every item of gold they could lay their hands on. At the time of this story, the Ratts are diminished in size and stature and now live under the floorboards of Clawfoot Hall. Then one day, everything changes. The ancient enemies of the Ratts have tracked them down and they are looking for the Great Ratt Hoard. The future of the Ratts is at stake. They must protect their inheritance at all costs. This is an exciting and action-packed story of the unusual, rodent-like family and their search for treasure with villains on their trail.

What could be worse for a ghost than not being frightening enough? That's Spooker's problem as he faces his Practical Haunting examinations at the Anne Boleyn Secondary School, under the watchful eye of the Inspectre-ate and Sir Rupert Grimsdyke (who's definitely not Spooker's favourite teacher). He isn't helped by the fact that he's sent for training to a brand-new house in Buttercup Avenue - not at all the kind of dingy, creaky building in which ghosts feel most comfortable. Spooker must find a way to spook the most unspookable people imaginable ...Or maybe ghosts don't have to be scary, after all?
