    About this audiobook

    The first instalment in the fairy-filled Thirteen Treasures trilogy, full of fairies, magic and pure adventure from Waterstones Children's Book Prize winner Michelle Harrison.

    While visiting her grandmother's manor house, an old photograph leads Tanya to an unsolved mystery. Fifty years ago, a girl vanished in the woods nearby – a girl Tanya's grandmother will not speak of.

    Fabian, the caretaker's son, is tormented by the girl's disappearance. His grandfather was the last person to see her alive and has lived under suspicion ever since. Together, Tanya and Fabian decide to find the truth. But Tanya has her own secret: the ability to see fairies. And, after disturbing an intruder in the night, it emerges that someone else shares her gift. . .

    The manor's sinister history is about to repeat itself. Can Tanya and Fabian solve the mystery before it's too late? 

    ​The perfect series for fans of Katherine Rundell and Sophie Anderson!

      Everything about this book was absolutely fantastic. The way Michelle Harrison writes is just so so beautiful and descriptive. I absolutely loved the main character and how her relationship with Fabian changed through the book. The whole land of the fae was executed brilliantly and the creatures described within the story were phenomenal. The plot to this story was captivating and you had to keep listening. This was really addictive listening and so far with book one of this series if the rest of the series carry on this way for now this could overtake in my favourite trilogy by Michelle Harrison but then there is another book yet to join A pinch of magic & A sprinkle of sorcery. Absolutely fantastic though and I highly recommend this book to listen to
