The Storyteller by the Sea

Melody spends her days scouring the Devon shore for treasures washed up by the sea or left behind in the sand by people who come to her beach.

She takes them back to Spindrift, her weathered old house set in a crescent of equally weathered old houses on the edge of a little Devonshire bay.

She places her treasures on her brother Milo's bed at the end of each day and weaves beautiful and fanciful stories for him about how they came to be. Everything Melody could ever need is right where she is, cupped by the rocks that shape her bay, whispering through the salty air and chiming from the sea. Except all is not as it seems. The house of stories is under threat from developers, looking to modernise the strip of coast on which the old house stands.

With the help of her estranged cousin, can Melody save the old house and change her world for the better?
