Barnaby's dad has mysteriously disappeared and now Barnaby is forced to live with Granny Hogsflesh, proud ruler of a vast pickling empire. Everything in Granny's mansion is a hideous shade of puple and stinks of vinegar - including Granny herself. What's more, she's clearly hiding some dark secrets.
