Will Hugo heed the pleas of the fog-shrouded figure at the window and welcome him inside? A spine-tingling ghost story from bestselling author Lucy Strange. Folk say the fog plays tricks – that it shapes itself into little hands and frightened faces that press at people’s doors and windows, desperate to come inside. But Hugo is convinced the ghost he has seen at the window is no trick of the fog. The boy’s hollow eyes are haunting him. What would happen if Hugo were to open the door, and let him in? Brace yourselves for a chilling, wintery ghost story … Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8. Lucy Strange's latest work, THE BOY AT THE WINDOW, is a thrilling blend of historical and paranormal fiction. This suspenseful tale, suitable for teenage and young adult readers, is a testament to her status as the Sunday Times bestselling author.For fans of Kiran Millwood Hargrave (Leila and the Blue Fox), Keith Robinson (Wolf Road), Katherine Rundell (The Explorer), Michelle Harrison (A Storm of Sisters), and Natasha Farrant (Voyage of the Sparrowhawk).HarperCollins 2025 Show more
