title: The Music Maker's Daughter
author: Wyatt, Gayle
description: Something is deeply wrong in the Belaugh household, and Madeline Brooks is about to step right into it. When her beloved pianist father dies, Madeline loses everything: her family, her friends and home. But she never relinquishes hope. She dreams of following in her musician father's footsteps and righting the wrong done to him. Rising above the depersonalising regime of the orphanage, she secures a music scholarship with the wealthy Belaugh family. It seems like a dream come true. But is it? At Harborough Hall she comes face to face with a nameless horror that fills all the Belaugh protegees with dread. Battling to protect herself and those she learns to love from harm, the hurt runs deep.  It begins to erode the one thing she treasures – her father's gift of music making. If she loses that, her dreams will be over. As this incredible opportunity rapidly turns to nightmare, Madeline's struggles are just beginning. A heart-warming tale of determination and courage, friendship and loyalty.
