The Diamond Blade; what mystery does it hold? What threat is it to King Edward? Welcome to the world of sixteen year-old Marie Houssman, as created by the astonishing imagination of award-winning author Julia Fettes. Marie, newly arrived from France, has just been brought on as a castle servant in Goldberg Castle in northern England. Full of confidence, she struggles to become a useful member of the castle staff, her youthful curiosity keeps leading her into intriguing situations. Marie's life takes a sharp turn when she discovers a mirror with baffling markings around the edges. Spurred on by the unwavering enthusiasm of Charlie, a fellow servant, Marie soon finds that she's on the trail of something far worse -- and far more dangerous -- than an ordinary killer. This breathless flight through castle halls, shadowy passageways, and complex relationships of late-medieval times is wrought with remarkable depth and intelligence, complete with surprising twists and extraordinary heart.
