A powerful, moving and enchanting story from the acclaimed author of The Secret of Haven Point.
Mimi adores her wild, fun, full-of-life gran. Then Gran starts forgetting things. Suddenly there are cracks appearing all around their home – and a mysterious black crow – both of which only Mimi seems able to see.
Mimi is determined to solve the mystery. Luckily she has new friends to help- Titch and Nusrat. Together, they’re the Stickleback Catchers- solvers of puzzles and seekers of adventure.
Down by the river, where the gang meet and the silvery sticklebacks swim, they discover a mysterious stone, speckled with stars. But this is no ordinary stone- it’s the doorway to another world, a world of talking crows and secrets, magical constellations and memories – and maybe, just maybe, Mimi’s chance to bring back Gran forever…
