Bookroo's summary
In the eerie halls of Green Knowe, a manor shrouded in mystery, children—both living and spectral—navigate a world where the past whispers secrets. As they uncover the manor's hidden stories, the line between reality and the supernatural blurs. What ancient mysteries lie within its walls, and how will they change those who dare to explore them? Dive into a tale where history and hauntings intertwine, challenging the boundaries of time and courage.
From the publisher
L. M. Boston’s thrilling and chilling tales of Green Knowe, a haunted manor deep in an overgrown garden in the English countryside, have been entertaining readers for half a century. Now the children of Green Knowe–both alive and ghostly–are back in appealing new editions. The spooky original illustrations have been retained, but dramatic new cover art by Brett Helquist (illustrator of A Series of Unfortunate Events) gives the books a fresh, timeless appeal for today’s readers.
