Greed. Deceit. Jealousy. Treachery. None are qualities you want to
come up against, especially when they're brought to life in a group
thought to be dead. Unfortunately for Hugo Bennett, an
eleven-year-old schoolboy, and his friends and allies, this group
wants what they have and will stop at nothing to get it. When a
small golden amulet is discovered by Hugo, it's realised that this
is the focus of the attacks they are facing. Together with five
jewelled rings, these objects originate from the scabbard of
Excalibur, the magical sword of King Arthur. Legend has it that
these precious items form the 'inheritance' which, when assembled,
will give the power of regeneration to four executed children: Mary
Edwards, Stephen Lloyd, and Anne and Jane Trembles, executed in
1697 and descendants of the Witches of Bideford. As they stood on
the scaffold, they proclaimed their dying curse - to kill all those
responsible for their illegal execution alongside all of the
perpetrators' descendants. And as bad luck would have it, this
includes Hugo and his family. Allies, new and old, must now work
together to keep the inheritance out of the wrong hands, but as the
clock ticks down, it seems it will take a miracle to stop the
witches' children from coming back from the dead. Can Hugo and Bird
triumph this time or has their luck finally run out?
