A classic Christmas ghost story set in a haunted historic house - for fans of Emma Carroll and Lucy Strange.
It's Christmas, and eleven-year-old Lolli must return to London and break a promise she made to herself - to never again step foot in the Victorian historic house in Spitalfields managed by her family.
There, Lolli must face up to what she saw in the house several years ago and make things right for two ghosts - one friendly and one decidedly not - opening her guarded heart to people in both the living and twilight worlds.
About the Author
Allison Rushby, the daughter of an author, was raised on a steady diet of classic English literature. Some of her favourite books, re-read countless dog-eared times, include Rumer Godden's The Dolls' House, Frances Hodgson Burnett's The Secret Garden, Dodie Smith's I Capture the Castle and Noel Streatfield's "Shoes" series. She has long been a fan of cities with long, winding histories, wild, overgrown cemeteries, red brick Victorian museums, foxes and ivy. She prefers to write with a cup of Darjeeling tea by her side and a Devon Rex cat curled up in her lap.
Her work includes The Turnkey of Highgate Cemetery; When This Bell Rings (a Notable in the CBCA Awards); and The Mulberry Tree, which was shortlisted for the West Australia Young Readers' Book Award.
Allison lives in Queensland, Australia, and frequently visits her extended family in the UK.
