Fourth in the spellbinding Rose series from bestselling UK author Holly Webb, featuring magicians, witches, talking cats, mist-monsters, treacle and friendships. Rose is an orphan with magical powers who follows clues to discover who her real family was.

Time has flown since Rose left the orphanage behind for her new family at Mr. Fountain's magical house. But when the stern Miss Fell comes to stay at the mansion, Rose can't help but notice the extra attention Miss Fell gives her. When Rose sees the flash of a face in Miss Fell's mirror--a face that's familiar and foreign at the same time--her suspicions are confirmed that Miss Fell might know more about Rose's past than she's letting on...

Can a hidden picture, a silver mirror, and a timid ghost lead Rose to the truth about her family?
