Rich in atmosphere and with a plot that cleverly combines history with mystery and even magic this is a many layered and original adventure story. When Flora and Isobel’s home is destroyed in an air raid at the end of World War 2, their mum takes them to stay in her ancestral family home, Splint Hall.
Under its disagreeable present owner Mr Godfrey, Splint Hall is a chilling place full of rules and secrets. Flora and Isobel set about defying the rules and uncovering the magic! There is a lot to reveal as the girls risk all to get to the truth.
1945. War has ended, but for sisters Isobel and Flora the struggles still continue. They've lost their father and had their home destroyed in a bombing raid, and now they must go to live with their aunt and her awful husband Mr Godfrey in their ancestral home, Splint Hall.
