Description

Step into the past in this spine-tingling historical adventure from award-winning author Christopher Edge.
"A writer of genuine originality" - Guardian
Penelope Tredwell is the feisty thirteen-year-old orphan heiress of the bestselling magazine, The Penny Dreadful. Her masterly tales of the macabre are gripping Victorian Britain, even if no one knows she's the author. One day, a letter she receives from the governor of the notorious Bedlam madhouse plunges her into an adventure more terrifying than anything she has ever imagined.
Why are the patients of Bedlam waking every night at twelve minutes to midnight? What is the meaning of the strange messages they write? Who is the Spider Lady of South Kensington? Penelope is always seeking mysteries to fill the pages of her magazine.
But this isn't any ordinary story, it's the future. And the future looks deadly... A suspenseful historical adventure series with a supernatural twist
"The feisty and courageous Penelope makes the perfect heroine for an adventure packed with exciting twists and turns" - BookTrust
