About this listen
Bloomsbury presents The Haunting of Fortune Farm by Sophie Kirtley, read by Amy McAllister
Sometimes, secrets don’t stay buried forever. Sometimes, they need to be set free…
Twelve-year-old Edie and her younger brother Pip are spending half term at Fortune Farm, high in the Irish mountains, with their grandmother Lolly. They haven’t visited Fortune Farm for YEARS and Edie has been dreading it for MONTHS. They spent all their holidays there when Dad was alive. And Edie doesn't like thinking about Dad – even the happy memories haunt her too much.
When Edie uncovers a clue that could lead her to long-lost Viking treasure, it's just the adventure she needs to take her mind off Dad. But the adventure soon takes an unnerving and dangerous turn, and Edie discovers that Fortune Farm has more secrets, mysteries and ghosts than she had ever dared to dream.
A spine-tingling adventure about the power of memories and the restless spirits that whisper on the wind…
An emotional and spine-tingling adventure perfect for fans of The House with Chicken Legs, A Girl Called Owl and A Pocketful of Stars.

Critic Reviews
‘I absolutely loved The Haunting of Fortune Farm – it’s a ghost story with a thrillingly, dark Viking ‘roar’ to it, but threaded through with such beauty and heart. The setting is superbly drawn and Edie’s courageous journey ‘into’ the mountain will have you racing through the pages, but it’s also a story that carries huge emotional heft as it’s about memory and loss and learning to let go.
Once again Sophie Kirtley has bought history to life in the most vivid and imaginative way possible. She’s a terrific storyteller. And everyone needs a younger brother like Pip!
