Description
GET READY FOR A HEART-POUNDING HISTORICAL MYSTERY…
From the award-winning author of THE GARDEN OF LOST SECRETS and THE HOUSE OF ONE HUNDRED CLOCKS comes a gripping new adventure filled with buried secrets and dark lies, set against the evocative backdrop of the Edwardian era.
MAY, 1910. As the blazing Halley's comet draws close to the earth, Nancy is uprooted to start a new life in Suffolk with a grandfather she has never met. With every curtain drawn shut, Nancy is forbidden from leaving her grandfather's house: no one must know that her or her mother are there.
As the mysteries pile up, Nancy has to bring dark secrets from the past to light - even if doing so will put her own life at risk.
