Description
A SPOOKILY MAGICAL CHRISTMAS TALE FULL OF MYSTERY AND SUSPENSE, from the prize-winning author of The Mystery of Raspberry Hill
Twelve-year-old Flora Winter and her mother are off to the small seaside town of Helmersbruk for Christmas. When they arrive, Flora soon discovers an abandoned mansion straight out of a fairytale.
But it's not just the manor that's mysterious - porcelain figures are appearing out of nowhere, a strange boy in a green cap seeks her friendship, and she hears eerie whispers in the night.
Flora is determined to unravel the secrets of Helmersbruk Manor - but as the clock ticks down to Christmas, Flora must solve the mystery before time runs out."A spooky-yet-heartwarming festive treat... Suitable for ages 9+, this is a lovely story with just the right level of suspense but nothing truly scary"
