A hidden garden. An ancient tale. A missing child. A story to send shivers down your spine. 

"Dear readers, when it comes to magical wishes, the results are not always quite what the wish-maker expects. Magic has ideas all of its own."

Fran doesn’t want to stay with her aunt and uncle and her annoying cousin, Imogen. Imogen is rude and unfriendly and, it turns out, she’s missing.

Stranger still, no one seems to know where Imogen is, or even remember that she existed. Not even her own parents. It’s up to Fran to convince Imogen’s best friend, Bex, to help her find out what happened to the girl nobody, including Bex, can remember.

All Fran knows is that it’s got something to do with the hidden garden at Stillness Hall and the twelve  statues that belong there...
