Tan Callahan, Great Detective, is back in the exciting Truly Tan series! Tan has never been fond of the old machinery shed. It's dusty and airless, full of dark secrets and bad memories. There's a mountain of junk in there, too: broken chairs, sideboards, couches, books and overcoats. But worse still is the creepy portrait of an unnamed little girl. She has cold, dark eyes and a gloomy face. And if the girl isn't scary enough, the china doll she's holding looks downright malicious.

It's time for a stakeout at Topple cottage in the sixth instalment of the best-selling and very popular Truly Tan series.

I have to weed the garden and water the plants at her cottage. But mostly I’m in charge of security. A strange car has been coming and going. A shadowy figure has been spotted snooping around on the veranda. Something big is about to happen at this cottage. Just you mark my words. Truly Tan."

I have a hunch they are and my hunches always lead to adventure. Truly Tan.
