The Children of Farthing Green

Step into 1920s Cornwall, where summer idylls hide centuries-old curses. Can Bethany and her cousins unravel dark secrets before the past destroys their future?

Imagine the knock of leather on willow on a summer’s afternoon: the call of “owzat!” Tea on the green lawns, a white haze over the long spiky grass beneath ancient trees. The polished brass and whistle of a steam train as it pulls into a sleepy country halt. Church bells drifting on a lazy breeze. The taste of blackberries warmed by the sun. Ladies in white dresses and hats cycling to church.

Set in 1924, near a quaint Cornish village by the sea, it sounds peaceful and idyllic—doesn’t it? But how wrong you would be.

When sixteen-year-old Bethany loses her parents, she is sent to spend the summer on the sprawling Farthing Green estate. There, alongside her cousins Lamorna and Simon, she becomes caught in a chilling mystery: a four-hundred-year-old curse, witches, and dark supernatural forces that threaten everything she holds dear.
