Publisher's Synopsis
Ella Ewell, a young conservator at a Kensington museum, shares her semi-detached cottage in the New Forest with her domineering mother. Their new neighbour, Fred Beverley, is a widower with four children, the eldest of whom shows Ella something very special: a royal seal from the reign of King Charles I. Its history will lead Ella - and her mother - into a future neither could ever have anticipated.
