From the bestselling author of Darwin's Dragons comes a high-stakes aquatic adventure, perfect for fans of The Murderer's Ape!

England, 1893, and aquarium fever is at its height.

Twelve-year-old Vinnie Fyfe works in the tea-shop at Brighton aquarium, and waits for her milliner mother to return from Paris.

The arrival of a giant octopus changes her life for ever. Discovering a talent for art, Vinnie begins to draw the extraordinary beast.

She soon realises she can communicate with the octopus through colour and – as a gripping mystery begins to unfold – discovers what true courage really means ...

  • The second middle-grade historical adventure by critically acclaimed Lindsay Galvin, author of Darwin's Dragons
  • A gripping Victorian mystery with a touching connection between a young girl and an octopus at its heart
  • Strong STEM and natural history themes with an underwater twist
  • Effortlessly blends exciting adventure with a rip-roaring historical mystery and non-fiction elements

Nice, But Glue Is Noticeable!
Size: 7, Color: Caramello
Love these but they were a bit too wide. Would have kept them but the shoe lining at the toe was glued which is very noticeable.

Love these shoes!
Size: 5.5, Color: Bianco
These are adorable, perfect shoes. Fit is perfect (5.5), style is perfect - they have a retro, Marilyn Monroe look. Would be perfect with capris or above the knee skirt or dress.
