Watch Hollow: The Alchemist's Shadow by Gregory Funaro

3.0

The Alchemist’s Shadow is the story that follows two months after the events of Watch Hollow. After the Tinkers defeated the evil that was lurking in and around Blackford House, they are now living on the magical property as its caretakers, assuming that there are no other relatives alive to claim the ownership. That is, until two children, Agatha and Algernon Kojima, arrive with their governess Ms. Graves from England to claim the house as their residence.

While Mr. Tinker and Ms. Graves try to work out their living situation, trouble is once more lurking at Blackford House, and it does not take long for it to rear its head again. Getting help from the animals in the clock, everyone must run for their lives in this exciting story that seems even more fast-paced than the previous one.

Read this book to find out exactly how the clock was made all those years ago, what made it tick and turn magical in the first place and to find out if the children and their magical friends will once more save the day, or is Blackford House lost for good this time?
