Publisher's Synopsis
Hurry! whispered the house, and the grandfather clock at the heart of it beat an anxious tick ... Tom opened the door wide and let in the moonlight ... He was staring at what he saw outside. They had said, 'really, there's nothing to see'. Nothing? This thrilling and brilliantly written book - now considered a classic - has enchanted readers ever since it was first published. (10/2/88). Downtown pictures acquired rights. Starring James Wilby and Greta Scacchi, TV tie-in release is 02/2000.
