Bookroo's summary
In the eerie halls of Green Knowe, a haunted manor in the English countryside, children—both living and spectral—unravel mysteries that defy time. As they navigate the overgrown gardens and shadowy rooms, the boundaries between past and present blur. What secrets do the walls of Green Knowe hold, and how will these children, caught between worlds, uncover the truth? Dive into a world where history and the supernatural collide, and every corner holds a new surprise.
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.
