Preface

From 2020 Costa Award Winning author of Voyage of the Sparrowhawk comes an epic adventure with a call to arms: we must fight to save the most treasured things on our planet.

To Bea, Noa and little Raffy, Ravenwood is home. In its own way, the house rescued them, even if it did have a fallen-down tree taking up most of the kitchen. And, of course, beyond the house is the garden, with its lake teeming with wildlife, its ancient trees, home to many a den, and the secret cove where you can jump from the rocks into the clear blue sea . . .

So the idea that Ravenwood could be sold. Demolished even. Well, that's unthinkable.

Then again, it's not like the children get a choice.

But the truth is, we all make our own choices. It's just a matter of deciding what we really care about.

In the wild garden of a clifftop house, three very different children race against the clock to rescue an ancient tree from destruction, repairing their fractured families in the process.
