THE PINK HOUSE

The final book in a trilogy which includes The Boat in the Bay and The Broken Bell.

The Pink House finds the children growing apart.

Poppy must chose between painting and adventure as the others discover a lost lake in a secret valley. The decision to stay behind and begin her first painting changes her life for ever as, too late, she discovers the dreadful consequence of their discovery.

Set in the South of France between the wars, the action is seen through the eyes of children confronting an adult world they never quite understand.

At one level an adventure story, at another, a spellbinding account of a child's first steps in the dark world of art and artists.

A book about the power of art that can be enjoyed by children and adults alike.
