Guardians: Mystery at the Loch (Volume 1)

A witch, a wolf and a gypsy fortune-teller are just a few of the adversaries the girls face in this series of magic, mystery, and travel adventure. The world needs more heroes, and now it’s about to get some in the unlikely shapes of the next two “Guardians” - Terry, a serious-minded tomboy, and Lucy-Beth, her warm-hearted best friend. In this first book, what starts off as a trip to Scotland to visit the Angus family, soon turns into a sequence of startling occurrences. What is the family secret their grandmothers are hiding? Did the witchdoctor send the venomous snake to bite them? Where did the wolf come from? How did the gypsy fortune-teller suddenly vanish? Did Grandpa Angus really see Nessie? Why is there a succession of unfortunate events happening in the little village of Drumnadrochit? These are some of the questions the girls have during their summer vacation, far away from their Californian home.
