Categorised as Young Adult, but don't be put off if you suspect you are not. This is an extraordinary book. It resonates with the heat and heady scents of the caribbean.
When twelve year old Idie Grace inherits a grand house in the Caribbean. With no adults, except for servants, she does as she pleases, filling her home with exotic animals. But the house holds many secrets, and the truth behind her inheritance is the biggest secret of all which will only be revealed when her idylllic world seems to be unravelling piece by piece.
Bewitching storytelling. We recommend!
