Description
A Pattern of Secrets by Lindsay Littleson is set in 1876 and follows Jim, a young boy who has escaped from the Poor House. With the help of a mysterious family heirloom, he sets out to save his brother from a similar fate.
Jim's only hope lies in a Paisley patterned shawl with five guineas sewn into its hem, which could provide a new life for his family. He must now find the shawl and steal it back from the big house where the girl with the red hair lives.
This gripping Victorian mystery sees two worlds collide as Jim and Jessie unravel the past and its secrets.
