"Young readers will once again be hooked into the early 1900s, just as our 21st century protagonists are, and intrigued by the historical context.I love how Karen Inglis takes us into a world that goes beyond the time-stamped historical events we learn to remember and actually gives us a feel for the way people and society ran too. It's often hard to transport children to the time they are studying, but she gives us a portal to this with Tom, Stella, and now Hannah too, as our agents and I feel this makes it more relatable and enjoyable. The historical day-to-day life interwoven with the mysterious plot will certainly keep readers eager to not only read but learn more!" ~ Michelle Gilbert, Y5 Teacher, UK
