Dangerous treasure

Ballygandon Gang

by Gordon Snell

Brendan plans a summer holiday of wild adventures with his friend Dessy in Dublin and then finds he has to stay with his cousin Molly in the country.

The visit, however, turns out to be full of excitement and menace, as an ancient Celtic brooch from a nearby haunted castle is stolen, and the three young people become the target of a criminal gang.

There are horseback chases, kidnapping, and eerie happenings among the castle ruins as the ghost of a murdered princess seems about to take her dreadful revenge...
