Bought from a charity shop at the weekend.

"Once it had been the great forest of Lythe - a vast and improbable thicket of green with a mystery in the very heart of the trees. And here, in the beginning, lived the Fairfaxes, grandly, at Fairfax Manor, visited once by the great Gloriana herself.
But over the centuries the forest has been destroyed, replaced by Streets of Trees. The Fairfaxes have dwindled too; now they live in 'Arden' at the end of Hawthorne Close and are hardly a family at all.
But Isobel Fairfax, who drops into pockets of time and out again, knows about the past. She is sixteen and waiting for the return of her mother - the thin, dangerous Eliza with her scent of nicotine, Arpege and sex, whose disappearance is part of the mystery that still remains at the heart of the forest."

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Taking to Wyldetwo, as this is on her wishlist. I hope she enjoys it.

Passed to me today by Beckydore, for Wyldetwo, who I'll probably see before she does.

Really enjoyed this, thanks for passing on Beckydore. Quite different from the Jackson Brodie ones I have read more recently, but just as well observed. Must have another go at Behind the Scenes at the Museum which I started but never finished years ago!
