From the bestselling author of A Pinch of Magic comes the first installment of a magical trilogy.

While visiting her grandmother's house, an old photograph leads Tanya to an unsolved mystery. Fifty years ago a girl vanished in the woods nearby - a girl Tanya's grandmother will not speak of.

Fabian, the caretaker's son, is tormented by the girl's disappearance. His grandfather was the last person to see her alive, and has lived under suspicion ever since. Together, Tanya and Fabian decide to find the truth. But Tanya has her own secret: the ability to see fairies. And, after disturbing an intruder in the night, it emerges that someone else shares her ability . . .

The manor's sinister history is about to repeat itself . . .

“Age 13”

This book is like a modern fairytale, and not the little kid's kind. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone between the ages of 12-15.
