Inspired by the classic novel The Secret Garden,
Jane Yates introduces us to a steampunk world of bio-domes, robots and
mysteries. Eleven-year-old Aberdeen is so used to being by herself that all she
has to fill her thoughts are stories of mighty dragons and grand castles.
Aberdeen’s world is soon thrown into disarray however; her parents murdered.

Having no choice, Aberdeen is sent to live with her uncle back on Earth where
her fascination into her new surroundings begin to take hold. Untrusting of new
people at first, it isn’t long before Aberdeen comes across 3 other children,
and taking a risk, befriends them as she tries to adjust to her new home. And
yet, along with Maisy, Peter and Lenard, Aberdeen comes across a riddle – a set
of clues to reveal the hiding place of a lost manuscript. A manuscript that forces
more questions than answers.

Oh, and there’s Frank too, Peter’s robot dog, who completes this special circle
of friendship.

Garden is a journey of self-discovery, of trials and friendship. With adventure
boundless, Jane Yates follows up her acclaimed Paradox Child trilogy with a new
tale for young fans of steampunk and science fiction.

And now without further ado the cover of ‘Garden’………..
