The Secret Garden meets Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar
Children in this lush middle grade adventure about a girl
determined to infiltrate her grandmother's enchanted garden with the
help of some magically gifted friends.
Mallory Estate is the last place twelve-year-old Piper Peavey wants to
spend her summer vacation. The grounds are always cold, the garden out
back is dead, a mysterious group of children call the property home, and
there's a rumor that Melena M. Mallory--the owner of the estate and
Piper's wealthy grandmother--is a witch.
But when Piper's father falls ill, Mallory Estate is exactly where she
finds herself.
The grand house and its garden hold many secrets--some of which may even
save her father--and Piper will need to believe in herself, her new
friends, and magic if she wants to unlock them before it's too late.
