Mermedusa - An Eerie-on-Sea Mystery (Paperback)
Thomas Taylor (author)Published: 07/09/2023
Concluding Thomas Taylor's rip-roaring Eerie-on-Sea series in spectacular fashion, Mermedusa finds friends Herbert Lemon and Violet Parma investigate a mystery which goes to the seaside town's very core.
Herbie and Violet's fifth gripping adventure brings the internationally bestselling Eerie-on-Sea series to a heart-stopping climax.
It is midwinter once again, and the hosts of a paranormal podcast have descended on Eerie-on-Sea eager for a sighting of the legendary malamander. Herbert Lemon, Lost-and-Founder at the Grand Nautilus Hotel, is feeling uneasy - and not just because of the visitors.
He's being plagued by unsettling dreams, and the head-splitting "Eerie Hum" that is reverberating through the town.
Something is dreadfully wrong, and it seems to be coming from Eerie's very core. Herbie and his friend Violet Parma will need all their courage as they head deep below the town to seek answers. Perhaps here, finally, they - and the malamander too - will discover the Deepest Secret of Eerie-on-Sea.

MEDIA REVIEWS
Taylor's magical touch makes you believe the impossible. - Catherine Doyle
The adventures are on a huge scale, full of drama and peril but lots of good humour too and the final revelations are as warm, satisfying and delicious as the fish and chips at Seegol’s diner on Eerie-on-Sea’s pier. - LoveReading4Kids
Spooky and kooky, this fifth book is an epic conclusion to the series. - WRD Magazine
A visit to Eerie on Sea is like putting on your slippers, wrapping yourself in a throw & snuggling up in your favourite reading spot with a heart warming cuppa. - Maja, NetGalley
This was another heart-felt story that really dives into the meaning of family - from the lost, to the found. This was another delightfully charming adventure that I adored and loved seeing this series come together. I highly recommend this series to fantasy lovers of all ages! Especially those who enjoyed A Series Of Unfortunate Events, and/or Professor Layton's Games! - NetGalley Reviewer
