review 1: Molly and Kip are siblings who have left Ireland during the Great Famine for a job in Great Britain with the Windsor family. After multiple warnings and cryptic mutterings they finally arrive at the old house on the island only to find a family that has fallen on hard times and into illness. What is actually going on at the Windsor house? What is the deal with the giant tree hidden behind the locked door? Who is the Night Gardener and what does he want? Will Molly and Kip be able to escape or is it too late? Gothic Horror for the Middle School set. MS
review 2: A pair of homeless Irish siblings find their way to a manor house in England where they have recently been employed. The sister is quite clever and it saves her hide on a few occasions. A tree, dark and ... moreominous, grows into the manor's walls. If you like a good yarn, this is the one to read! This spooky story unwinds at the perfect pace. Characters are well drawn out, the plot is unique and the pace is great. less
