When William, Susie and Martha decide to concoct a witches' brew in Miss Hepplewhite's old barn, they little realise that they are precipitating another manifestation of Morgan le Fay. From there onwards things can only get worse, both for themselves and their doomed Cotswold village. yet, maybe there is salvation in the old legend of the Standing Stones, the Whispering Knights, who stand sentinel over Steeple Hampden. First published in 1971, only the use of twelve pennies in the shilling ages this good versus evil tale, which should appeal to lower secondary readers who don't mind their stories uravelling quite slowly.
