"A knight, newly-returned from the Crusades, rides out one day to look over his estates. He doesn’t return and nothing is seen or heard of him or his horse again. His grieving lady dies of a broken heart within a year. This is the legend of Elmswood, a mid-Kent village.
The children of the Davington family and their friend, John, go with their sledges to Castle Hill to have fun in the deep snow, but their fun turns into a terrifying adventure when they encounter a knight. Is he the knight from the legend? They think so, but are they right?"
"What is the secret of Ben Cruachan, the hollow mountain that towers above the small village of Taynuilt in Argyll? Has it anything to do with a cat which disappeared from the riding school or the appearance of a stray pony?

And what role does the piper play in all this? As he says later, “If all else fails, there’s always the music.”"

Jude is sceptical, but...."
