Jack Slater - Monster Investigator
This was my third book. It was shortlisted for the Ottakars' (now Waterstones') Children's Book Prize.
Jack Slater is a Monster Investigator - quite probably the best in the world. But is even the best good enough when the monsters under the bed are up to something...?
Jack Slater is the world's greatest monster investigator. there isn't a monster in the world that can scare him. But when news reaches him that the monsters under the bed are getting organised, this can only mean one thing - trouble!

As if Jack's last case wasn't tough enough... Now the Dark Depths are open. But what are they? And who is the mysterious Mr Whisper? Has Jack Slater finally met his match?
