WINNER OF THE INDIE CHILDREN'S BOOK AWARD
LONGLISTED FOR THE BLUE PETER BOOK AWARD
Tamarind never knew her Indian mum, who died soon after she was
born. So when she arrives at her ancestral home, a huge mansion in the
Himalayas surrounded by luxuriant gardens, she's full of questions
for her extended family.
But instead of answers, she finds an ominous silence - and
a trickle of intriguing clues: an abandoned hut, a friendly monkey,
a glowing star ring, and a strange girl in the garden who calls
herself Ishta.
Slowly, Tamarind unravels a mystery at the heart of who she is.
