I have recently been sucked in to the life of EMILY IRIS and her family. This enchanting, powerful book is set in the 60's in Johannesburg, where the Iris family welcome a family of 'Gypsie' travellers from Australia in to their home. Not knowing what to think of the family, an early warning from the Iris' trusty night-guard Buza, a native African, is ignored. The adventures of Emily and her sister Sarah untangle throughout the book and with a surprise ending in store, the book is hard to put down. 

Written in the perspective of the 12 year-old, the writing was an easy read and extremely tense and enjoyable! 

I wont do a full book review and expose the story, otherwise it might ruin the story! 

I rate this book - ☆☆☆☆ out of 5 stars!
