"We did not hunger for death or the manner in which we met it…We alone must atone for the tragedy that tore us apart… eternity beckons…"
One baking hot Wednesday, Rachel Cook’s boat trip to Shire’s Island begins with the discovery of a handful of weather-beaten gravestones surrounding a salt-encrusted pool. Rachel’s extraordinary memory wouldn’t let her forget that sweltering day and the odd epitaph chiselled into the greyest of gravestones. That day changed everything, and she knew her life would never be the same again.With her family’s financial affairs in a right old pickle, the Cooks moved to an insignificant seaside town. Losing all but one of her friends, Rachel makes new ones and rekindles an old one, and they investigate the strange goings-on around the town of Lower-Inkcome-by-the-sea.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. With the long summer school holidays coming to an end, Rachel Cook's days are filled with hordes of homework and little time for boredom. But on an unusually hot and sticky Wednesday morning, her uneventful school break comes to a shuddering stop: an innocent trip to the park leaves her with more questions than answers about her family's past. As her parents' finances plummet towards the poverty line and beyond, the Cooks end up living high above an insignificant seaside town, in a creaky tree-house with a leaky loft. Rachel makes new friends when she rekindles an old one, and together they grapple the odd goings-on around the town of Lower-Inkcome-by-the-sea. With pirates aplenty, murderers on the loose and a game of marbles hanging in the balance, she finally pits her wits against a most unpleasant stinky bird! This item is printed on demand.
