The Wolves of Greycoat Hall
Lucinda Gifford
A deliciously funny tale, with equally amusing illustrations, about being judged for what, rather than who, you are.
When Boris and his parents learn that Scotland is re-introducing wolves, they leave their mansion in Morovia for their Scottish homeland. But these wolves aren’t planning to settle in the wild, oh no! Instead, they book into the exclusive Highland Hotel, from where they plan to enjoy Scotland’s best tourist spots and cuisine. But is Scotland ready for holidaying wolves? Especially such hungry ones? And why are certain people so unhappy to see them?
From spooky dungeons to scheming developers, the Greycoats’ new adventure is full of surprising discoveries.

When the Scottish Conservation Society announces plans to reintroduce wolves into the wild, the Greycoat family of Morovia is soon boarding the Trans-Bohemia Express for the land of shortbread and lochs. The Greycoats – Boris and his parents Randall and Leonora – are wolves, after all, and travel is their true passion. Well, travel and good food.
The Wolves of Greycoat Hall swings with a breezy, impish humour that will have readers aged 7–10 turning the pages with a smile. Checking into the Highland Hotel (carpet and curtains all in matching tartan), young Boris learns of plans to demolish the historic Drommuir Castle and replace it with cheap apartments. Local wildlife is threatened, too. But what is the true history of the castle? And what possible connection could it have to the Greycoat family?
This first Greycoat family adventure is a total charmer and I can’t wait to share the fun with young readers and their families.
