Synopsis

The thrilling follow-up to the boarding school mystery The Girl with the Glass Bird.

Best friends... for never?Anastasia Stolonov and Edie Wilson are back at boarding school after spending the summer apart, and they can't wait to be dormmates again! Unfortunately, things don't go as planned, and Edie is stuck with Janet, the new girl at Knight's Haddon. Janet isn't like anyone the other girls have ever met before. She's cool, confident, and a little rebellious, so Edie is thrilled that Janet seems to like her. And as Edie's friendship with Anastasia becomes rocky, Janet is the only one on Edie's side. But when mysterious things begin to happen, Edie starts to think that Janet may not be all she seems--and suddenly events take a dangerous turn. Will Edie be able to salvage her friendships and uncover what's going on before the clock runs out?

The small casement window in the cloakroom creaked open, and a girlish figure slipped out from the pitch-black interior and dropped silently into the flower bed. It had been raining earlier in the night, but now the air was cool and clear, and the moon was floating above the low crest of woods beyond the park, showing the pale silvery outline of the treetops. The child stood still, crouched animal-like against the wall, her head hidden inside the hood of a robe. Everything was very quiet and still, the only sound the faint murmur of a car passing on the lane toward the village, but the child remained frozen, peering into the darkness as if in fear.
