"A soaring new adventure for the inimitable Cordelia Hatmaker"
Cordelia Hatmaker’s father is missing at sea but, unlike the rest of her family, she is still convinced he is alive and in this sparkling new adventure she is following cryptic clues to his whereabouts, clues discovered on a map hidden in his telescope, together with his handwritten note ‘Look to the stars’.
Unravelling the riddle leads her to make new friends as well as exciting new discoveries about who she is, and what she’s capable of. There’s real magic and charm to Cordelia’s adventures and author Tamzin Merchant fills them with irresistible characters and memorable scenes. There are lots of great stories set in other worlds, but Cordelia’s feels particularly real and inviting and the magic has its own distinctive crackle. This is the sort of read that will make your nose tingle, as Cordelia herself might have said.
