'Hang about. It isn't a full moon now. It's broad daylight!'

You might think she's an ordinary girl leading an uneventful life but when her wacky Aunty Gwen is mugged and taken to hospital, Nia uncovers a startling secret in her aunt's cellar...

Jenny Sullivan's latest novel, Full Moon, published by Pont Books, combines the life of the average teenager with a good dose of the supernatural.

Nia loves her family but wishes that they could be a bit more 'normal'. There's Mam who's desperate to be a TV star but can't act for toffee while big sister, Ceri, is offered a part in a new TV series but is worried about her mother's jealous reaction. Last but by no means least, is little brother, Steffan, who thinks he's a superhero!

One moonlit night, Nia's life is changed forever following an encounter with a pair of muggers. Unable to confide in anyone, the girl's got a lot on her plate - finding the attackers, keeping up with her schoolwork and dodging the 'Kid Cops', solving Ceri's dilemma, looking after Steffan... and, of course, getting ready for her first date with Ryan O'Brien! Will she manage to juggle everything and unravel the mystery of the fierce creature at Aunty Gwen's which only makes an appearance when the moon is full . . . ?

Jenny Sullivan's fast-paced, witty style of writing is sure to captivate the reader and ignite the imagination of anyone over ten with a taste for the supernatural.
