Description
"A great many things have happened in that garden - things you oughtn't to know about. Some good, some bad, and all akin to magic." Yorkshire, 1910 Sixteen-year-old Mary Lennox has said her goodbyes to the sun. Plucked from India and the only life she's ever known, Mary must find her place within the walls of Misselthwaite Manor - her estranged uncle's sprawling and dreary estate. It is only with the discovery of a locked and forgotten garden that Mary's spirits begin to lift. Claiming it for herself, the garden becomes Mary's paradise and the first secret she's ever had to keep. But, the garden has secrets of its own. Deaths, disappearances and visions have long ridden the winds of the lonely Yorkshire moors. And then there's Mary's cousin Colin, bed-ridden and fated to spend his life in the dark. Misselthwaite's mysteries begin to unravel as Mary's connection to the garden and a young gardener by the name of Dickon deepen. Is the garden the cause - or the answer to everything? A re-telling of Frances Hodgson Burnett's 'THE SECRET GARDEN'
