An entertaining, thoughtful new novel from award-winning, best-selling Gwyneth Rees Eleven-year-old May's life changes dramatically when she leaves the city and moves to Thornton Hall, a big house in the countryside where her grown-up brother Ben has got the job of gardener - despite having been less than truthful about his qualifications!
