Ruth Hatfield is from Cambridge, although she travels around a bit as she is a field archaeologist by profession. It's a good job for inspiration! Ruth has been writing stories for most of her life just to please herself; however, what she loves to explore is the way in which imagination gives us limitless possibilities to make our own lives extraordinary. In her spare time she eats books, gallops around on horses, pedals around on her bike and tries not to break too many bones.
One night, Danny's storm-chasing parents don't come back.
The storm that seems to have taken them has left him something - a charred fragment of wood from the old sycamore tree.
The stick is a taro card, when he holds it, Danny can speak to nature.
But an ancient figure of darkness will stop at nothing to silence him.
Danny, alone and unaccustomed to acts of bravery, must confront his fears, find his parents, and unravel the secrets of The Books of Storms.
A boy on a quest against the power of the storm
