Midsummer's Eve is about to get a whole lot more magical!
Someone is misusing magic. Curses have been cast and terrifying creatures are on the move ...
Twelve-year-old Pinch Perkins lives on Tricky Dragon Lane, deep in the heart of London's magical quarter. But when her mum is struck by a curse, and nobody seems to have a clue what to do, Pinch knows it's down to her to find a cure.
Racing the clock on Midsummer's Eve, Pinch will face the terrifying boss of the Thames Mudlarks, dance with the devious fairy king and queen and share a burger with King Arthur's knights - all the while trying to avoid the clutches of two most fearsome villains ...
Cathy FitzGerald is a writer, producer and presenter. Her first radio documentary - The Magic Carpet Flight Manual - was broadcast on the BBC World Service in 2010 and won the Radio Academy Production Award for Best Newcomer. Since then she's made many more features for the BBC and has won Prix Marulic, Whicker's World, APAs, ARIAs and Third Coast Festival awards for her work both as producer and presenter. Cathy is the founder and caretaker of Strange & Charmed, a school for people who tell stories in sound. When not making documentaries, Cathy writes websites, audio tours and apps for many of the UK's major cultural institutions including The National Gallery, Tate, the Imperial War Museum and the V&A. She has a DPhil on the works of Charles Dickens. Chloe Dominique is an Illustrator and Concept Artist from the UK working in Animation, Video Games and Publishing. Her work is driven by a love of storytelling, which she explores through design, colour and light in her illustrations. Chloe often finds herself drawn to projects that are full of heart, adventure and charm, with a special fondness for the offbeat and mysterious. When she's not drawing, Chloe enjoys reading, walks along the coastline on blustery days with her Dog of Mischief, Loki, and finding peculiar treasures in antique shops.
