Wormwood Mire by Judith Rossell
This spine-tingling sequel to Withering-by-Sea sees Stella sent away to the moldering old family estate, where she discovers two odd cousins--and a mystery. Eleven-year-old Stella Montgomery has always wondered about her family. What happened to her mother? And could she have a long-lost sister somewhere? Stella's awful Aunts refuse to tell her anything, and now they have sent her Stella away to the old family home at Wormwood Mire, where she must live with two strange cousins and their governess. But dark secrets slither and skulk within overgrown grounds of the moldering house, and Stella must be brave if she's to find out who--or what--she really is.The bestselling Stella Montgomery series (Withering-by-Sea, Wormwood Mire, Wakestone Hall, and A Garden of Lilies: Improving Stories for Young Minds) is written and illustrated by Judith Rossell, who has won numerous awards. Judith worked as a government scientist (not a mad scientist, but a normal type of scientist) and for a cotton-spinning company (which created threads for T-shirts and denim jeans, as well as mops and teabag strings) before starting her career in children's books. Judith is the author of thirteen novels and the illustrator of almost eighty. Her work has been published in the United States and the United Kingdom, and has been translated into over twenty languages. Judith has a walrus-sized cat and lives in Melbourne, Australia.
