England is at war.

Growing up in a lighthouse, Pet’s world has been one of storms, secret tunnels and stories about sea monsters. But now the clifftops are a terrifying battleground, and her family is torn apart.

This is the story of a girl who is small, afraid and unnoticed. A girl who freezes with fear at the enemy planes ripping through the skies overhead. A girl who is somehow destined to become part of the strange, ancient legend of the Daughters of Stone …

The highly-anticipated second novel by Lucy Strange, author of the bestselling The Secret of Nightingale Wood and The Ghost of Gosswater.

A haunting wartime tale about a girl who lives in a lighthouse, woven through with an unforgettable legend.

Winner of the Historical Association Young Quills Award 2021 and shortlisted for the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize 2020.
