Description

The Clockwork Sparrow meets Downton Abbey


The city of Yorke is in a panic. There's been a murder! Is an ancient ghost-hound called the Barghest on the loose?


ROSE RAVENTHORPE, her friend Orpheus and the secret society of butlers search for clues in the dark, eerie skitterways, on the mist-covered moors, and atop the ancient walls of the city. Rose believes that the villain is human, and she's determined to prove it.


There's no sweeping this crime under the carpet...

Reviews

This is an excellent addition to the popular genre of historical mysteries for children. Excellently plotted, with realistic and well-rounded characters. * Parents in Touch *
