Is magic a blessing or a curse?
An Australian coastal town called Jamadget Castle that has been under supernatural attack for decades. In the nearby forest a dimension rip known as the Goblin Gate lets out bizarre creatures that terrorise the town inhabitants.
Fourteen year old twins, Viola and Alyssa Valentine come from a long line of magical guardians gifted with the responsibility of protecting their town. During a typical battle against a goblin however, the twins are confronted by a different terror. A vicious and mysterious gang, who hide in the surrounding bushland, are threatening to destroy Jamadget Castle. As the twins fight to protect Jamadget Castle, they will be forced to confront dark and shocking secrets about their family and town history.
This book will appeal to high-school aged fans of Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs.
