Mary-Kate and Granny are staying at a very quiet castle in the Scottish village of Bonkillyknock. The perfect destination for drinking cups of tea with Granny’s old friends. However, this is no ordinary reunion – it’s a World Society of Monster Hunters’ conference.

When the castle kitchen is turned upside-down and the experts suspect the usually secretive Loch Morgavie monster, Mary-Kate isn’t sure the clues add up. Could there be some other kind of beastly problem bothering Bonkillyknock Castle?

Miss Mary-Kate Martin might only be a beginner, but she’s determined to get to the end of this monstrous mystery.
