A chilling, ghostly, yet ultimately magical and hopeful tale for older children. Set in Regency London in an orphanage and woollen mill near to the Thames, girls are disappearing one by one. With mysterious and thoroughly enchanted assistance, Lydia battles to protect her sister Sophie and the other girls against an evil foe.
Stuart Fryd enters the dark, and tells a beautifully simple yet rather scary tale. There is magic to be discovered, it feels old and wise, yet almost scampers across the pages, bringing flashes of light to the story. On occasion a cushion may be needed to hide behind, yet this captivating tale calls to be completed, to experience the kiss of christmas, friendship and love, to ride the magic.
I found ‘Lost and Drowned’ to be an eerie, exciting and spellbinding tale, it may occasionally frighten, it also has the capacity to absolutely delight.
Every winter, girls are going missing. Lydia and her carefree sister, Sophie, must stay alive long enough to uncover the terrible, supernatural force that stalks the children of Rottenhall Orphanage.
