A sickly girl and her helper, trapped in a house on the swamp.
An English girl who arrives out of nowhere in the night.
A mystery that must be solved before all three can return to where they belong.
Exploring her inherited garden, Lizzie Jones is transported through another portal to the Louisianan swamp. There she is pursued by terrifying creatures to Cypress House, where an ill girl and her carer are trapped.
But Cypress House has its own mysteries Lizzie must solve before she can return home. Who is Caroline Day, the ‘ghost girl’, and what is her connection to Lizzie’s past? Why does the threatened hurricane never arrive? Who is the mysterious odd-job man, Mr Paterson? And how will Lizzie ever find the portal when it’s lost in the swamp?
A fast paced mystery adventure for lovers of His Dark Materials and Harry Potter.
Praise for ‘The City of Light’, Book 1 of The Secret of the Tirthas: “an entertaining and exciting book...I can’t wait to read the next adventure.” Guardian Children’s Books
