About the book: To Sam and Harry, a tree change means a TREEHOUSE... and time travel!

150-year-old Tanglewood Manor is Sam and Harry’s new home in the country. As their parents set about renovating the ruin, the brothers explore its secrets.

One book in the dusty library is different.

They open it and read a riddle.

Now the house is suddenly full of the dead people from the portraits on the walls.

And they are very much ALIVE.

Will Sam and Harry ever be able to return home, or will Tanglewood Manor keep them in its grip forever?

The Riddle of Tanglewood Manor is a middle grade (ages 7 and up) historical fiction that involves time travel, mysteries and adventure.
