Viac o knihe

In the summer of 1990, fourteen-year-old Trevor Riddell gets his first glimpse of Riddell House. Built from the spoils of a massive timber fortune, the legendary family mansion is constructed of giant whole trees, set on a huge estate overlooking Puget Sound. Trevor's bankrupt parents have begun a trial separation. His father, Jones Riddell, has returned to Riddell House to join forces with his sister, Serena, dispatch the ailing Grandpa Samuel to a nursing home, sell off the property for development, divide up the profits and live happily ever after. But as Trevor explores the house's secret stairways and hidden rooms, he soon discovers there is someone else living in Riddell House. Only Trevor's willingness to face the past will reveal the key to his family's future.
