A young girl must thwart a sinister plot to protect her family in a world of magic and danger.
Lucy Bluecrowne, longing for life at sea, faces a new challenge ashore when two strangers target her brother for his pyrotechnic talents. As danger looms, Lucy must harness her courage to protect her family and uncover the secrets of the Greenglass House. Will she succeed in keeping them safe, or will the mysterious forces tear them apart? Dive into this thrilling tale of magic, mystery, and family bonds.
Return to the world of the best-selling Greenglass House, where smugglers, magic, and pyrotechnics mix, in a new adventure from a New York Times best-selling, National Book Award-nominated, and Edgar Award-winning author. Lucy Bluecrowne is beginning a new life ashore with her stepmother and half brother, though she’s certain the only place she’ll ever belong is with her father on a ship of war as part of the crew. She doesn’t care that living in a house is safer and the proper place for a twelve-year-old girl; it’s boring. But then two nefarious strangers identify her little brother as the pyrotechnical prodigy they need to enact an evil plan, and it will take all Lucy’s fighting instincts to keep her family together. Set in the magical Greenglass House world, this action-packed tale of the house’s first inhabitants reveals the origins of some of its many secrets.
