Take a brother and sister - twins; a new home inherited from a mysterious uncle; a cat called Demerara (who can talk) and a very grimy rat and you have the beginnings of a thoroughly enjoyable adventure involving a dastardly uncle, magic –and a lot of chocolate. Did you know there is a government department called the Secret Ministry of the Unexplained? You do now. For younger readers.
