Book cover     Written as a Diary by a 12 year old girl, Dee(short for 'Diana') has ambitions to be an author.

     Drawing upon the knowledge of his 12 year old grand-daughter of contemporary school-life rather than his own (long-ago) school days Eric mainly based the story of Dee's adventures in Lanzarote on his own experiences of exploring the island.

     There Dee meets Trevor, the pretty Sandy with wealthy parents, who becomes a rival for Trevor, and the mysterious and seemingly rich, older Ranolf.  

     Exactly why is he so interested in the 13 year old Sandy?

     Is he the 'Contact man' for a gang of kidnappers, which is Trevor's idea? Or is he one of those dangerous 'Internet Daters', Dee and others had been warned about in a school Assembly?

     But Sandy's own parents were ignoring both dangers.

     Dee and Trevor decide to find out about him.  And then that ride in 'The Haunted Mine' in a Wild West Theme Park gave them all that final piece of evidence.

And there was another mystery.  Did they all REALLY see Nessie in Loch Ness?
