From the author of the Booker Prize-longlisted Treacle Walker Winner of both the Guardian Award and the Carnegie Medal, this is an all-time classic, combining mystery, adventure, history and a complex set of human relationships. It all begins with the scratching in the ceiling. From the moment Alison discovers the dinner service in the attic, with its curious pattern of floral owls, a chain of events is set in progress that is to effect everybody's lives.

As the tension mounts, it becomes apparent that only by accepting and facing the situation can it be resolved.
