'Two utterly believable child characters whose emotions leap off the page' - Daily Telegraph
--This text refers to the
Audio Cassette
edition.
Product Description
Dragged off to darkest Cornwall by her grieving mother, Katie is miserable. Not only has she lost her father-now she's lost her home and all her friends too. Her mother thinks she's going to make new friends just like that-she's even got a new friend lined up for Katie already - Zillah. Well, Katie certainly isn't going to like her. Even if she does have a boat of her own. And a diamond ring on a string round her neck. And a deep, dark secret.

Katie's life has just changed. New home, new school, new life and new friends. Katie moves from London to live in a small Cornish cottage with her mum. Katie's and Zillah's mums try to make them friends, but don't succeed at first. Katie finally finds out Zillah's family secret and that explains why Zillah kept her self apart from other children. I really enjoyed this book because of all the adventures that Zillah and Katie get up to and how their friendship forms.
