Brenda and Effie Forever! — Paul Magrs

Brenda and Effie are living it up on the continent. Holidaying in Paris, they are menaced by a mysterious Peeping Tom with a limp and a hump, who warns them that they must never return home to Whitby again. Untold disaster will take over the world if they go anywhere near the North Yorkshire coast.... But Brenda and Effie know that they simply have to return to Whitby, even if it means the end of everything they hold dear.

Brenda owns a guesthouse by the sea and her best friend, Effie, runs the junk shop next door. But together they have another role as the guardians of Whitby against the vampires, daemons, and creatures of the night that continually plague the quaint but terrifying town.

Together Brenda and Effie must face the most startling dangers ever as they are engulfed by hideous secrets from their long-hidden pasts. Can our heroines survive all these fiendish shenanigans and live to fight the powers of darkness another day?
