Demon in the House

This is the frightfully frustrating story of Tony Morland who first appeared in "High Rising." A sweeter demon doesn't exist than this 12-year old with a gift for disconcerting remarks and getting what he wants from his mother. Boys will be boys, and little Morland is no exception, boasting, bragging, breaking windows, messing about in boats and demanding breakfast in bed, all very much to the despair of his mother, Laura. More than anything, Tony is desperate for a bicycle and although Laura is certain he'll come home in a coffin after one of his rides, Tony is determined to make her concede.Thirkell, Angela is the author of 'Demon in the House', published 2003 under ISBN 9780753167304 and ISBN 0753167301.
