Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The Cleves family, despite their fondness for history, never speak of the tragic events of 'the terrible Mother's Day.' On that day, nine-year-old Robin Cleves, beloved for his quirks, was discovered hanging from a tree in his garden. Years later, the mystery remains unresolved, but Robin's youngest sister, twelve-year-old Harriet, is determined to uncover the truth. Although she was just a baby when the tragedy struck, Harriet, inspired by adventurous authors like Stevenson and Kipling, is eager to find and confront her brother's killer. Her devoted friend Hely pledges to support her quest for revenge. However, the world they venture into is far from innocent; it is dark, adult, and menacing. In this evocative setting, the intertwining of place and past creates a rich tapestry of human drama. Harriet's inquisitive nature leads her to uncover family secrets and disturb a neighborhood rife with danger. This deeply engaging narrative illustrates how our imaginative lives, shaped by literature, cherished locations, and kindred spirits, can illuminate even the darkest truths hidden in our lives.
