Rate this book
In the shadowy depths of Thistledown Glen, Scotland, stands Asterley Manor - a grand yet crumbling estate shrouded in mystery. For generations, the Asterley family has hidden dark secrets within its ancient walls, secrets that whisper of a mystery powerful enough to destroy everything in its path.
When twelve-year-old Fern McAllister begins her job as a scullery maid at the manor, she quickly senses that something isn’t right. Strange sounds echo through the hallways, hidden passages reveal themselves, and ghostly apparitions seem to be leading her somewhere she doesn't understand. With the help of Fletcher Baines, a young gardener’s apprentice with a thirst for adventure, Fern embarks on a daring quest to uncover the truth behind the manor’s haunted past.
As they delve deeper, the duo discovers a long-forgotten secret tied to the very heart of the manor - a secret that threatens not only Asterley’s residents but the entire estate itself. With war looming on the horizon and the manor crumbling around them, Fern and Fletcher must race against time to solve a series of cryptic puzzles, find a mysterious journal, and uncover the secret before it’s too late.
But Asterley Manor is full of secrets, and the closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous their journey becomes. Will Fern and Fletcher be able to unravel the mystery before the manor meets its tragic fate? Or will they, too, become lost to the dark history of Asterley Manor?
Asterley is a spine-chilling ghost story filled with twists, turns, and the courage of two young friends who dare to face the unknown.
