Evie's Ghost, Paperback / softback Book

Evie's Ghost Paperback / softback

Part of the Helen Peters Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

Compelling period fiction for 9+ readers from the Waterstones Children's Prize shortlisted Helen Peters.Evie couldn't be angrier with her mother.

She's only gone and got married again and has flown off on honeymoon, sending Evie to stay with a godmother she's never even met in an old, creaky house in the middle of nowhere.

It is all monumentally unfair. But on the first night, Evie sees a strange, ghostly figure at the window.

Spooked, she flees from the room, feeling oddly disembodied as she does so. Out in the corridor, it's 1814 and Evie finds herself dressed as a housemaid.

She's certain she's gone back in time for a reason. A terrible injustice needs to be fixed. But there's a housekeeper barking orders, a bad-tempered master to avoid, and the chamber pots won't empty themselves.

It's going to take all Evie's cunning to fix things in the past so that nothing will break apart in the future... Absorbing, brilliant storytelling from the author of The Secret Hen House Theatre, The Farm Beneath the Water, Anna at War and The Jasmine Green Series for younger readers.
