The Secret of Nightingale Wood by Lucy Strange, £6.99
It is 1919. Father said that the new house was “a fresh start” but Mama is still unwell and stays in her room. Nanny Jane is too busy looking after the baby and Mama to pay any attention to Henrietta and the things she sees - or thinks she sees - in the shadows of their new home, Hope House. All alone, with only stories for company, Henry (as she is always called) discovers that Hope House is full of strange secrets: a forgotten attic, ghostly figures, mysterious firelight that flickers in the trees beyond the garden.
One dark night she finally finds the courage to venture into the mysterious Nightingale Wood.
What she finds there will change her whole world.
A fantastic adventure for anyone from age nine to however old you are!
