A gripping debut novel that's got it all: adventure, drama, history, mystery, a little love and a really loathsome villain. For centuries, Blackhope Tower has been shrouded in intrigue, which seems to centre around a curious painting hanging in the Mariner's Chamber. Its meaning has baffled historians, but when fourteen-year-old Sunni Forrest visits the tower she finds herself transported to the very heart of the Blackhope Enigma, and the painting itself. Can she and her friend Blaise overcome its dangers and evade their ruthless pursuers? And will they find their way home...alive? An age-old mystery is about to unravel. (Age Range: 9+)
