About this listen
Amanda Cadabra's life LOOKS perfectly normal ...
But looks can be very deceiving.
In the picture-perfect English village of Sunken-Madley, a young covert witch is laying low. Amanda Cadabra has her reasons. Orphaned when her family's van mysteriously plunged over a Cornish cliff many years before, Amanda is keeping herself to herself, quietly working for her grandfather's furniture restoration company, hoping the world will leave her alone. However, soon Amanda's peace is disturbed by the arrival in the village of the inquisitive Inspector Trelawney, dogging her footsteps as he investigates the strange fate of her family. But the persistent detective becomes the least of her problems, as a restoration job at the Tudor manor propels the young witch into a swirl of mystery and intrigue. Events quickly conspire to drag Amanda into the building's murky past and its even more dangerous present. Armed only with her wits, her grumpy feline familiar, Tempest, and a wand, Amanda Cadabra is going in.
A body, ghosts, hidden passageways, and a host of unanswered questions soon emerge. Can Amanda dodge the inspector long enough to solve the Manor's many mysteries and unravel her own past before the scandal of murder engulfs the village? Packed with intriguing mysteries and unforgettable characters, Amanda Cadabra and the Hidey-Hole Truth is a humorous fantasy mystery set in a world of delightful English villages.

Story
Archaeologist Verity Grey has been drawn to the dark legends of the Scottish Borderlands in search of the truth buried in a rocky field by the sea. Her eccentric boss has spent his whole life searching for the resting place of the lost Ninth Roman Legion and is convinced he's finally found it - not because of any scientific evidence, but because a local boy has "seen" a Roman soldier walking in the fields, a ghostly sentinel who guards the bodies of his long-dead comrades.

Story
The seat of the Trelawney family for over 700 years, Trelawney Castle was once the jewel of the Cornish coast. Each successive Earl spent with abandon, turning the house and grounds into a sprawling, extravagant palimpsest of wings, turrets, and follies. But as the centuries passed the Earls of Trelawney, their ambition dulled by generations of pampered living, failed to develop other skills.

Story
In this compulsively listenable tale of secrets, lies, and deception, Gilly Macmillan explores the darkest impulses and desires of the human heart. Diabolically clever, The Nanny reminds us that sometimes the truth hurts so much you’d rather hear the lie.

Cute story for all ages
Very cute story! I was a bit hesitant at first when I saw that the author was the narrator, but she did a fantastic job! A clean story for any age.
