FIVE EXTRAORDINARY ORPHANS. ONE INCREDIBLE MYSTERY. UNLOCK THE SECRETS OF THE WINTERBORNE HOME FOR VENGEANCE AND VALOUR For readers who love the mystery of Robin Stevens and the mayhem of A Series of Unfortunate Events ... When 11-year-old April joins a group of kids living at Winterborne Home she doesn't expect to be there for very long. But she soon learns that this home isn't like any of the others - especially when she unearths the secret of the missing-and-presumed-dead billionaire, Gabriel Winterborne, who is neither missing nor dead but is actually living in a basement lair, sharpening his swords and looking for vengeance. Now that April knows Gabriel Winterborne is alive, she must turn to the other orphans to keep him that way. As a looming new danger threatens to take Gabriel down once and for all, they must use their individual talents to find a way to make sure this home for misfits isn't lost to them for ever. Because at the Winterborne Home, nothing is what it seems, no one is who they say they are and nowhere is safe. And now a ragtag group of orphans must unravel the riddle of a missing heir, a supposed phantom and a secret key, all without alerting the adults of Winterborne House that trouble is afoot. The first book in a captivating new series from the bestselling author of Gallagher Girls.

This book was great! It really shows you the power of family and friendship. The way April would do anything to keep Gabriel safe shows how much they've bonded and created a connection. The way Tim protects Violet shows the power of Family! One of my favourite books! Definitely reccomend!

I thought it was brave of April to save Gabriel Winterbone. I liked April the best in this book. I would recommend this book to someone else, especially someone who likes mystery stories

Another book that I was very kindly sent a while back but I have only just got around to reading it this past week. The story was so interesting and mysterious, it was a book that could really get you thinking and predicting what might happen. The characters were interesting and the story was a pretty easy read. I could have easily read it in one sitting if it wasn't one in the morning when I got about halfway through. I finished it the next morning and put it straight on the pile to take into school, so I can share this story with the children. I think they'll enjoy it and I'll definitely be putting it on the "Recommended Reads" shelf.
