Description
London, 1960.
Living in the New Forest with their cold-hearted grandmother, twins Maisy and Duncan are neglected and unloved.
So when Duncan fails to come home after exploring the woods, no one — least of all his grandmother — appears to care.
Yet Maisy refuses to give up.
Though she doesn't know the woods well, she knows someone who does. The strange old woman who lives at their heart…
And what will she find if she does?
