Mim grew up surrounded by secrets. On the day she was born, her mother died and a strange curse was cast on her family. Ever since, she's been isolated in a dismal castle behind high walls, forbidden from venturing to the Outside.

But Mim has never been able to stop asking questions. And when her father hires a bogus governess, Madame Marionette – who brings along an entourage of thugs and a secret, caged ‘pet’ - Mim sets her enquiring mind to work on unravelling the mysteries all around her.

Longing for a taste of freedom, she is willing to break all the rules to set out on an epic quest for the truth. But will it be enough to bring happiness back to the lonely castle?

Until she was 10, Flynn didn't even know her real name. Her adoptive parents have always kept her past a secret, but one mysterious note transforms her world and sets her on a path to discover who she really is.

When the family are forced to stay in the idyllic town of Stopford, Ophelia's dream appears to be coming true. But someone is trying to drive the Bottoms out, and there's the issue of the strange Stopford motto: PLASTIC IS FANTASTIC - DIFFERENT IS DANGEROUS. Can Ophelia discover what lurks behind Stopford's perfect appearance, before she loses everything that makes her family so special?
