Some gardens have secrets, and some gardens have buried bodies ... this one has both
After the unfortunate death of her parents in America, Mary is sent back to her Uncle's grand manor house in Yorkshire, England. To deal with her grief, Mary throws herself into renovating the walled garden she used to play in when she was a child. But the more Mary digs, the more secrets and lies she unearths.
And when she finds out her Aunt Lily was killed under mysterious circumstances in the garden, it seems that everyone has something to hide - which doesn't help with Mary's investigation.
Nell Sowerby - her best friend from childhood seems to be hiding something, Colin - Aunt Lily's son seems to be sick all the time with no obvious signs of illness, and her uncle is clearly not telling her the whole truth about what happened the day her aunt died. Who is protecting who? And why?
As Mary gets to the bottom of the investigation with the help of a questionable detective and nosey podcaster covering the case, she begins to realise that not everything is as it seems...
- From bestselling author Katie Bernet, BETH IS DEAD, comes a brand new murder mystery retelling, this time from household classic The Secret Garden
- Unreliable narrators with lots of twists and turns that keep you guessing on every page.
- Great for fans of the classic text and for new readers alike. Accessible and gripping storytelling
- True YA romance subplot between Mary and love interest Dickon
