Synopsis

In spite of the frightening legend of a ghost and warnings of a dreadful curse, Richard, Hannah and James set out into Lancashire's Forest of Bowland to uncover the dark secrets of an ancient derelict castle. They hope there might even be some buried treasure in the old ruins, but when they find a gold ruby-ring their excitement suddenly turns to horror. This must surely be the ring used in the curse of the castle - a curse made hundreds of years ago, which brought the Black Death to intruders and still inflicts pain and death on modern-day visitors to the castle. Could the children be about to suffer the same fate? Soon, their worst fears are realised. They find themselves in a bewildering and dangerous dream-world, where past and present merge, and they are taken back through the centuries into the English Civil War. But how much is real; how much is fantasy? Then they come face to face with the terrifying Phantom of Calder Castle, and their lives are changed for ever.
