About this listen

June, 1905.

Helena and her parrot, Orbit, are swept off to Cambridge when her father is appointed clock-winder to one of the wealthiest men in England. There is only one rule: the clocks must never stop.

But Helena discovers the house of one hundred clocks holds many mysteries: a ghostly figure, strange notes and disappearing winding keys....

Can she work out its secrets before time runs out?

Another original adventure and mystery filled story from A M Howell, full of colourful characters, unusual goings ons and surprises. Brilliantly narrated and highly entertaining.

Tick-tock, tick-tock, squark!

On the search for books to recommend to my class of year 5 and 6 pupils, I listened to this book. The performance was great, the story well crafted, if a little predictable. I think good readers in year 4 and older readers in y5 and y6 who enjoy period stories like Journey to the River Sea and Tom’s Midnight Garden will enjoy this. I think girls might enjoy it more as the central character is a girl and an important backdrop to the story is the issue of gender inequality of opportunity in Victorian/Edwardian eras.

Ideal for readers who enjoyed books like Journey to the River Sea or Tom’s Midnight Garden.
