The Children of the King

Sonya Hartnett

It’s the Second World War and, with London becoming an increasingly dangerous place to live, the Lockwood children are whisked away to Heron Hall, to stay with their Uncle Peregrine in the countryside. But when they discover two strange boys hiding in a nearby derelict castle, the past and present collide. Can those in the present learn from the troubles of the past?

Covering two dramatic periods in English history, CHILDREN OF THE KING deals sensitively with themes such as loss, grief, family,
friendships, war and power.
