Thomas Creeper and the Gloomsbury Secret - Paperback
by J. R. Potter (Author)
Thomas hasn't been dealt the best hand in life: heir to a miserable family funeral business, in the miserable seaside town of Gloomsbury where the sun only shines a few times a year. Then a body arrives on the doorstep of Creeper & Sons Funeral Home with signs of foul play Thomas's meticulous father overlooks, Thomas is thrust into the middle of a terrifying mystery, one which will reveal the link between his family and the darkest secret of his hometown.
J.R. Potter grew up in New England steeped in the wondrous author and illustrator collaboration between John Bellairs (1938-1991) and Edward Gorey (1925-2000), a collaboration that would set the bar for Potter in his own work for years to come. While studying History at Brown University, he began writing his first story for young readers--a tale about an erudite talking dinosaur with a magical robotic briefcase.
