“One evening, shortly before the family holiday, Stirling unearths an ancient brooch whilst digging in his back garden. He doesn’t learn of the brooch’s mystical powers until he and new friends find themselves in danger and fearing for their lives. In this fast-paced adventure story, Stirling and Penny travel through five centuries’ worth of significant key events in French history.
