An exciting subterranean London adventure, the first in a
middle-grade trilogy. Hyacinth Hayward has recently arrived from
America and is having difficulty adjusting to her new surroundings,
especially being in the sole company of her eccentric mother.
Everything feels strange. Very strange. And it gets stranger the
day she accidentally unleashes the power of a secret river running
through London.
To prevent a second Great Fire, Hyacinth needs to
retrieve a single, magically charged drop of water from somewhere
in the city sewer system. Along the way she encounters an eclectic
cast of characters - the shambling, monstrous Saltpetre Men who
kidnap her mother, the Toshers who battle for control of magical
artefacts and a giant pig with whom she has a tea party.
The clock
is ticking - will she figure out who to trust?
