Just what do they have to do with the mystery of her father's death? Ambril struggles to answer this question when she moves back to the mysterious town where she was born and accidentally uncovers secrets about her father which threaten to destroy her entire family.
In this, the first book of Ambril's Tale, Ambril makes friends with some of the locals as she tangles with ornery garden gnomes, angry bicycles and a magical garden that she comes around to calling home. Along the way, she also manages to learn about the magic that will become her destiny.
Ambril's life changes forever when during their move to Trelawnyd, she gets whacked on the head by a decorated stick. She soon finds out that it is one heck of a monster magnet. It seems to want to help her make sense of the strange, magical things that go on in her surroundings...that is most of the time.
Ambril thought she'd seen everything. But she soon learns that her new home isn't the sweet little country town she was expecting. Monsters overrun the surrounding forests and bullies rule Main Street as well as the playground. Magic is a dirty word, despite the fact that most of the villagers are chock full of it. Fortunately she finds a few people who are not afraid of magic or the truth. Together they begin to unlock the mysteries of the ancient village they live in including the mystery surrounding her father's death.
