Matt Lanchester unwittingly brings
the past to life and unravels a mystery.
Lost Boy
LINDA NEWBERY
NEW HOUSE, NEW school, new friends—but Matt Lanchester knows it
won’t all be that easy when he moves to the town of Hay-on-Wye. Almost
as soon as he arrives, he is drawn into a mystery when he sees a roadside
memorial marked by a little wooden cross with the initials M.L. carved into
it. His initials! Then he meets Robbo and Tig and Old Wil Jones and his
wife, Gwynnie. There’s history here and a well-kept village secret—and
Matt is desperate to find out more.
Linda Newbery, winner of the prestigious Costa Award for Children’s
Literature, effortlessly mixes the old with the new, the past with the present,
tragedy with triumph in this hauntingly beautiful novel.
Linda Newbery is the acclaimed author of At the Firefly Gate, Sisterland, The
Shell House, and Set in Stone, winner of the Costa Award for children’s literature.
She lives in Northamptonshire with her husband and three cats.
