Blue Ruby
Ruby Halliday is surprised to find that her great-grandmother has left her a pearl necklace and a black cat in her Will. She is even more astonished to find that the cat can talk. However, the necklace was broken in the past, and Ruby must complete a desperate quest to find the missing black pearls and blue ruby. Her search takes her from Devon to Tahiti and back again – and then on to Cornwall.
The ghost of her great-grandmother has appeared to help her, and Ruby travels under the sea (meeting a sea monster) and back in time (meeting the original Queen Guinevere).
But how can they find a blue ruby – which no longer exists – unless magic is involved...
