Full Description
What would you do if you were stuck in a timeloop?
As Ailsa reaches her thirteenth birthday, her celebration is dampened
by a school rumour that has caused a huge fall out with her
best friend. Worse than the rumour we'll call THE TERRIBLE
THING, the Brollachan monster is at large in Edinburgh and it's
causing chaos.
After all, when something from another world appears in this one,
it's only natural that things become unbalanced. Time is
worse than ever before. Mornings are evenings and all clocks read
different times of the day. Nobody knows where they are supposed
to be.
The only thing for Ailsa to do is bravely enter Middlemarket,
the immortal world behind Edinburgh and find a way to lure the Brollachan
back to where it belongs. But as the days keep repeating
themselves, Ailsa is stuck in a time loop like no other, and THE
TERRIBLE THING soon becomes THE TERRIBLE THINGS - the monster
is hiding, days are getting shorter, and somehow Ailsa must fix
TIME before it stops forever. Can Ailsa get out of the time loop
and break the curse of the INFINITE MINUTE?
What would you do with an extra hour in the day? With a unique
hook and exploration of time, this MG adventure is like no other.
Brilliantly-written, from an author with credibility within the
film/tv/publishing industry.
David Wolstencroft is the celebrated and award-winning screenwriter
and producer of Spooks and Versailles.
A beautiful Scottish setting makes this a standout story.
