Ten-year-old Immy and her family run away from their storm cloud of problems to a tiny village in Cambridgeshire, England. When they find an adorable thatched cottage to begin a perfect new life in, the only downside is the ancient, dark and fierce-looking mulberry tree in the back garden. And the legend that comes with it - the villagers say the tree steals away girls living in the cottage on the eve of their eleventh birthday.
Of course, Immy thinks this is ridiculous.
Then she starts to hear a strange song in her head...
Allison Rushby's new novel for middle-grade readers is a captivating, spooky mystery.
