![]() You are drawn into the web of mystery that is unfolding before Triss’s eyes, and as she cannot remember nor figure out what is going on, the reader is as confused as she is. Every character in the story seems suspicious and guilty. There are mysteries, sinister activities and questions at every turn. This book, set sometime in the 1920s, is quite frankly one of the best children’s books I have read for years. Soon Triss suspects that what happened to her is more strange, terrible and sinister than she could ever imagine. Her sister, Pen, hates her and lies about her, and Triss doesn’t know why. Other times she wakes up with leaves in her hair and dirt on her nightclothes. ![]() ![]() She is constantly hungry, even to the point of climbing out of her bedroom window at night to eat rotting apples. When Triss wakes up after an accident, she realises that something is very wrong, although she does not know what as she remembers very little about it. ![]()
