Synopsis

Get ready for more adventures with Araminta, the star of a delightfully "spookie" chapter book series from Angie Sage, author of the New York Times bestselling Septimus Heap series!

Sir Horace is about to turn five hundred years old! Araminta and Wanda need to find him the perfect gift. Araminta finds an ancient sword in a grotto hidden under her haunted house—and it should be a cinch to get it. But she wasn't planning on the nasty surprise of a portcullis-trap and a rising tide in the grotto. Will Araminta and Wanda make it to Sir Horace's birthday party?

• A Haunted House Adventure: Spookie House is full of ghosts, bats, and secret passages―the perfect place to find a birthday present for a 500-year-old knight!
• Friendship and Teamwork: Araminta and her friend Wanda must work together to explore creepy caves and escape a devious trap.
• Secret Tunnels and a Hidden Grotto: Discover a mysterious smugglers' passage that leads from the house all the way to a seaside cave holding an ancient secret.
• A Race Against the Tide: When a portcullis slams shut and traps them, the girls have to find an escape route before the rising water fills the grotto!
