The Garden of Lost Girls

A missing girl. A search for answers. But what if the past wants to stay buried? In a quiet, coastal town, eighteen-year-old Jessica lets out a gasp, then walks out of the opening night her own play, ‘The Garden of Lost Girls’. She is never seen again. What did she see? Where did she go? And why did she never come home? Thirty years later, Jessica’s nephew, fourteen-year-old Sam, is still asking the same questions. With the town planning an anniversary performance of ‘The Garden of Lost Girls’, Jessica’s family hope that it will help to jog memories and, perhaps, finally solve the puzzle of Jessica’s disappearance. And Sam’s mum and her other sister want Sam and his cousins, Gracie and Archie, to be in the production to keep an eye out for new information. At least, that’s the plan. But as the play goes into rehearsal, a series of accidents make it clear to Sam and his cousins that not everyone is happy about the performance—and they’ll do anything to stop it.
