Title: The Garland of Filigree
Description: "How it works with other families I don´t know. In ours, we get troubles in threes. Our parents call it coincidence. I call it Fate."

Whatever he calls it, Alan´s fears were well-grounded. Starting with acute anxiety for the reputation of his young brother, and mounting to the sudden threat of fire in the old country house where the family lives, they reach amazing heights of tension and wonder and fear and delight in this tale of adventure. A tale of sorcery varying from the pale-grey variety to the blackest, and introducing Filigree, a brilliant character in several ways.
