Reviews for Tarantula Tide:

 'A fast-paced whodunnit ... the denouement is mighty good.'-- Mary Blance, BBC Radio.

'This is Enid Blyton with iPods and lashings of coke. Sharon Tregenza takes all that is good about classic action books for children and gives us a modern version set in Shetland. If any teachers are reading this - it would make a great class text too.'     --Valerie Watt, The Shetland Times.
