Tanglewreck by Jeanette Winterson

In a house called Tanglewreck lives a girl called Silver and her guardian Mrs Rockerbye. Unbeknown to Silver there is a family treasure in the form of a seventeenth century watch called The Timekeeper and this treasure holds the key to the mysterious and frightening changes in time. When Silver goes on the run to try and protect herself and The Timekeeper a remarkable and compelling adventure unfolds full of brilliance and wit, as is befitting an author with the imagination and style of Jeanette Winterson.
'If you want true literary genius, read Jeanette Winterson's young-adult novels, a stunning new facet of her career which began with TanglewreckThey're too clever for me to summarise' Guardian
This is Jeanette Winterson's second book for children. Her first book, King of Capri illustrated by Jane Ray was very well received. Jeanette's first novel, 'Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit' won the Whitbread Award.
