When Maddi Cottington and her parents emigrate from New York to London, strange things quickly begin happening. Maddi starts to see odd blurs and flashes on the periphery of her vision and she begins to worry that she might need glasses. But when she discovers a couple of old books about the Cottington family (which, for some reason, drives her father apoplectic), she begins to learn her ancestors secret – the Cottington’s can see fairies, and it has driven many of them mad.
When she overhears her parents talking, and realises they plan to send her back to the US to live with her unpleasant aunt, Maddi decides to run away from home. And she knows exactly where she’s headed – the Cottington’s long-derelict mansion. Here she will discover the various cryptic messages that were passed between Angelica and Quentin Cottington, the brother and sister who lived in the mansion many decades before.
