5.0 out of 5 stars
A spine-chilling tale of espionage, betrayal and murder....,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The December Rose (Puffin Story Books) (Paperback)
"The December Rose" is a thrilling tale set in the streets of London in the past, comprising espionage, treachery and brutal murder. Barnacle(a master sweep's boy), is suddenly thrust into a terrifying mystery, with many after his life and a golden locket in his possession. Barnacle meets Mister Gosling and others who give him protection and and a sense of belonging and his life on the run is changed temporarily. Barnacle's life is threatened by the presence of Inspector Creaker and the men under his charge. There are many twists and turns in this tale and there is an unexpected twist in the story right at the end. I really found this book to be extremely interesting and it became increasingly hard to put down as the plot and the storyline developed. I especially enjoyed the ending which I thought made this book very complete. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants a great adventure...

A very good book to read. Not too much information on the author but the story itself is a very good science fiction story. I would recommend this story to people who like science fiction.
