Two girls and a mystery :  or, The old house in the glen

Two girls and a mystery : or, The old house in the glen

May Hollis Barton

Children's Literature, Mystery & Detective, Fiction

Two girls. An abandoned house. A glen shrouded in secrets. When our young investigators stumble upon the mysterious old house in the glen, they find more than they bargained for: hidden rooms, strange sounds, and a puzzle that stretches back generations. What happened to the family who lived there? What are they still guarding? Barton crafts a proper old-fashioned mystery with genuine chills and two plucky heroines whose curiosity leads them into danger they can't quite escape. The atmosphere is thick with fog and suspicion, and the house itself becomes a character, its dark windows watching, its doors keeping their secrets. Perfect for readers who grew up on Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys but wanted more spook. This is小心谜题 meets Gothic creepiness.
