Tabby Aykroyd has been chosen. But for what? To play nursemaid to a little lost boy? To interpret messages from the ghosts who haunt her new home? Or for something much more sinister? In this prequel to Wuthering Heights, author Clare Dunkle spins a tale of a cursed house, its half-crazy inhabitants, and about the little boy who will grow up to be one of literature’s most infamous characters … if, that is, he and the surprisingly brave and wily Tabby can outwit the madmen who would turn them into the house’s next victims.
Genre: Fiction (YA) Jenny’s rating (out of 5 stars): 5 You’ll like this book if: You appreciate brave heroines and fantastic storytelling. You won’t like this book if: Ghosts, satanic rituals, and thoroughly repugnant characters turn you off.
