Who is the mysterious girl in the North West Wing? And what deep-seated tragedy spread its influence throughout the entire family? Go through the doors of Misselthwaite Manor and the Secret Garden for yourself, and see it come alive though the eyes of those that live there. Meet a family damaged by secrets, flawed by weaknesses, broken by the past, yet held together by the redemptive power of love. Come back into the Secret Garden on a fast-paced journey that will warm your soul!
