About this book
Linus Baker is a by-the-book caseworker for the Department in Charge of Magical Youth, living a tidy, colourless life among file cabinets and rules. When he is sent on a month-long assignment to a remote orphanage on an island, he finds six extraordinary children and their enigmatic caretaker, and a household that refuses to fit the forms he carries. Gentle, funny and unhurried, the novel builds its tension from bureaucracy and prejudice rather than peril, and its warmth from a found family learning to trust. A cosy contemporary fantasy about kindness, courage and the slow widening of a small life.
