After saving the Grand Duchy of Elffinberg from the jaws of a dragon in The Last Duchess, Pattern has been recruited by The Silver Service Agency to help solve supernatural mysteries. Pattern is dispatched undercover to the Island of Cull as a housemaid to the mysterious Lady Hawk, to investigate the disappearance of a young man called Henry.

She quickly discovers that the Isle of Cull has some strange and magical properties, including an unseasonably tropical climate and a party of house guests who seem entirely in thrall to Lady Hawk and her beautiful daughter. Pattern and her new friend Nate are the only ones immune to the spell Lady Hawk has cast, but as the male house guests begin to disappear one by one, they find themselves in a race against time to solve the mystery of the island’s magic.

Join Pattern on another dangerous and spellbinding adventure in the second Silver-Service Mystery from Laura Powell, illustrated by Sarah Gibb.

About the Author

Laura Powell, who may or may not be a direct descendant of King Arthur, was born in London, but grew up in the shadow of Carreg Cennen Castle in Wales. Much of her childhood was either spent with her nose firmly in a book, or plotting to escape her boarding school, which she hated. Having studied Classics at university, she now spends her time working for the English National Ballet and writing. She lives in Camberwell with her husband and young son.

Sarah Gibb is a London-based illustrator. After landing regular spots in the Telegraph and Elle magazine, Sarah has gone on to illustrate Sue Townsend's Adrian Mole series, many classic children's fairy tales, and even the Harrods Christmas window display.

Industry Reviews
Superbly descriptive and with a varied cast of characters, readers will be drawn into this mystery * Parents in Touch * Sarah Gibb's intricate black and white silhouette illustrations add visual charm to the action and Powell's references to The Complete Servant by Samuel and Sarah Adams, an 1825 guide to `the Peculiar Duties and Business of All Descriptions of Servants,' bring authenticity and extra polish to this new Silver Service Mystery. * Lancashire Evening Post *
