The thrilling second novel in the acclaimed series THE BRIGHTSTORM
CHRONICLES!

The Brightstorm twins are back for another adventure! Eudora
Vane has organized an explorer fleet to search the last known
destination of missing adventurer Ermitage Wrigglesworth. Harriet
Culpepper and the crew of the Aurora join the mission, but they
don't believe that Eudora has good intentions. What is she really
looking for?

Arthur is determined to find out, and when disaster strikes and the
Brightstorm twins are separated, will he and Maudie be able to
find their way back to each other?
The long-awaited sequel to BRIGHTSTORM, which was selected
as the first Booksellers Association Children's Book of the Season,
won the West Sussex Children's Story Book Award, was shortlisted
for the Books Are My Bag Awards and the Waterstones' Children's
Book Prize, and longlisted for the Blue Peter Book Award.
Perfect for fans of books by Peter Bunzl, Abi Elphinstone, and
Alex Bell.
PRAISE FOR BRIGHTSTORM:
"A pacy
tale of lies and greed versus loyalty" Observer "Hardy
has drunk from the same cup as Philip Reeve and Philip Pullman. This
is a skilful, gripping and hugely enjoyable account of the bonds
that keep families together." Literary Review "Full
of surprises and keeps you desperate to find the truth" National
Geographic Kids "An unputdownable Victorian adventure
with vivid characters that travels at lightning speed" BookTrust's
Great Books Guide "A highly entertaining old-school adventure"
The Bookseller
