Product Information

A clever and suspense filled story from an award winning author. Billy has heard that his new next-door neighbour is a bit odd, and her jungle-like garden and creepy house fill him with forboding.

Inside her house, Billy is intrigued by all the chess boards that she says belong to her son. Billy and his dad are keen chess fans and it's while watching the new World Chess Champion on TV that Billy has an astonishing revelation about the Black Queen...
