Another fantastic adventure from the zany world of Abbie, Perdita and the 'eefil' Dr Hubris Wildebeest Klench!

Enthusiastic and pro-active author available for in-store events
Wonderfully playful use of language
Incorporates elements of Irish history in a fun way

Welcome to Remote Ken, an island with a mind of its own. A school trip to a rain-soaked island off the Irish coast is not Abbie Hartley’s idea of fun ... until she hears rumours of treasure hidden by medieval monks. With her best friend Perdita she sets off to find the priceless Goblet of Dripping. But they’re not alone. Hot on their heels are a vast villain, an ancient Inca emperor – and a curse that will turn their world upside down. With a grumpy Grandma, a wiggling wig and some quarrelsome classmates in tow, Abbie plunges into her wildest adventure yet. With crazy characters, wonderful wordplay and awesome adventures, kids will love this story!

Having started a degree in medicine and finished one in geology, Debbie Thomas followed the obvious path into journalism. After training as a BBC radio reporter, she lived for 10 years in Bangladesh and South Africa where she worked for aid agencies and never quite plucked up the courage to go shark diving. She now lives in Kildare with her husband and three children. She runs creative writing classes, works for a charity supporting people with leprosy, and dreams of swinging from a bridge in Ecuador. She is the author of Dead Hairy and Jungle Tangle.
