History and myth entwine in this atmospheric tale of freedom and
friendship from bestselling author Lucy Strange and acclaimed
illustrator Pam Smy. Bess has left the London workhouse behind for

night she sees something stir in the murky water. But is it really
a monster that lives in the depths of the pond? Or a creature
trapped and alone, just like Bess, desperate to escape ...
