Left to perish on a bank of snow as a baby, Amy has never known love, never known family.
Reluctantly given shelter at nearby Hatville Court, she is despised by the masters and servants alike.
The beautiful Hatville heiress, Aurelia Vennaway, is Amy's only advocate - she becomes the light of Amy's life, and the centre of her existence.
So when Aurelia dies young, Amy's world collapses. But Aurelia leaves Amy with one last gift.
A bundle of letters with a coded key. A treasure hunt that only Amy can unlock.
A life-changing secret awaits... if only she can reach it.

She was the winner of the Richard and Judy Search for a Bestseller Competition and the 2015 LoveStories 'Best Historical Read' award.
I honestly really liked this book. I loved both Aurelia and Amy so much. I felt bad for everything Amy was going through, especially after Aurelia died. At least she still had Aurelia...in a way. Mrs. Riverthorpe was also one of my favorite characters. The secrets and growth made this book wonderful. Go read it!!!
