Hope House is more than just a building – it’s a place of magic and mystery. . .

When Amal and her family unexpectedly inherit the enchanted clifftop home, they can’t believe their luck. But their joy is short-lived when a mysterious couple arrives, claiming the house is theirs and giving Amal’s family just thirty days to pack up their stuff and leave before they demolish it completely.

The clock is ticking, and Amal is determined to save Hope House from destruction. How will she unravel the secrets of the house and its mysterious benefactor in time to save it?

A page-turning, lyrical mystery with a magical twist, perfect for fans of Matt Goodfellow, Onjali Q. Raúf and Disney’s Encanto. Featuring accessible text in verse and beautiful illustrations throughout.
