Some questions should not be asked too quickly.
Nine-year-old Idona likes answers. Ten-year-old Aunsel trusts what the Fen shows him.
When a borrowed skiff, a vanished eel line, and a piece of strange black timber point toward the Old Water, the two friends follow the clues farther into the reeds than either of them planned.
There, on a muddy holm beneath an old willow, they find a mysterious boy who cannot tell them his name.
And something else is wrong.
Three ancient iron fixings remain where four once held. A coin appears where it should not be. Footprints vanish. And the still black water seems to remember things that people have forgotten.
Idona is certain the clues fit together.
But a true clue can still lead to the wrong story.
To discover what really happened, Idona and Aunsel must learn the difference between what they know and what they only think they know-before someone puts the missing iron back.
Set in the mysterious Fenlands of medieval England, The Boy on the Holm is an illustrated chapter-book mystery filled with friendship, forgotten stories, strange clues, and just enough of the uncanny to make young readers wonder what might be hiding beyond the reeds.
The first adventure in the Idona & Aunsel series.
