Childrens

For centuries the village of Waterslain in Norfolk has hidden a dark secret. When Annie and Sandy set out to solve the mystery of the angels missing from the church roof, the whereabouts of the angels become clear to them - but then they discover that other people are hunting for them, and are determined to stop the children at all costs. The friendship between the boy adjusting to a new life in his mother's village, and the girl whose family have always lived on their remote farm, the haunting atmosphere of the Norfolk saltmarshes, and the strong sense of the past still present, give richness to a tense and fast-paced story of detection for younger readers.
