The Curse on the Wishing Well

At the age of 12, circumstances caused Mary to have to live in an old children's home. At a time when she thought her life couldn't be disrupted any further, she soon discovers that things aren't quite as they seem. It's not the talking pictures, witches, magic potions or family secrets she needs to worry about. This house and its gardens are the start point for an unpredictable journey into the unknown. Mary must not only adapt to her new surroundings but also accept the only certainty is that nothing is certain. Can she or anybody break this curse? People will often say, "Revenge is a dish, best served cold." There is no better place to serve it, than down a cold dark wishing well. Debut children's story by Jacqueline Evans
