The Holy Island Goblet
The tide hides the road. The goblet reveals the door. Crowe wants the star. Nine days after surviving Tynemouth Priory, Evelyn, her younger brother Elliot and their black-and-white terrier Ozzy cross the flooded road to Holy Island-where a black feather and a seventy-year-old photograph are waiting. A plain pewter goblet, seven carved birds and a missing museum record point towards a hidden chamber beneath Lindisfarne's ruins.
But Professor Malachai Crowe has reached the island first, and he is searching for the same relic. As the tide closes the causeway, the children must separate truth from planted evidence, follow a clue that appears only at dawn and decide what matters more: the key-or the names it was built to protect. Set among the real ruins, castle and tidal landscape of Holy Island, The Holy Island Goblet is a fast-moving historical mystery for readers aged 8-12 and Book Two of The Crowe Chronicles.
