This is a breath-taking adventure story, set in reimagined
eighteenth-century England. As the realm struggles to maintain an
uneasy peace after years of cival war and tyranny, a
twelve-year-old orphan and her loyal companion, a grumpy goose, are
about to become the unlikely heroes of a radical revolution. Mosca
Mye has spent her childhood in a miserable hamlet, after her father
was banished there for writing inflammatory books about freedom.
Now he is dead and Mosca is on the run, heading for the city of
Mandelion. There she finds herself living by her wits among
cut-throat highwaymen, spies and smugglers. With peril at every
turn, Mosca uncovers a dark plot to terrorize the people of
Mandelion, and soon merry mayhem leads to murder ...With an
unforgettable cast of characters and an inspiring message at its
heart - sometimes the power of words can change the world!
