Amelia came from a rather poor family and though I say family, there was only her mother, she had no brothers or sisters and her father had died so long ago that Amelia only knew him from his photographs. These same photographs, her mother kept meticulously free of dust, on the oak mantelpiece, in the tiny cottage where they lived. So, yes, Amelia was rather poor and had none of the excellent toys and beautiful things that the other girls and boys had. Though Amelia had much, much more than them for she was always content and always happy, but most of all Amelia had imagination. You see, the children who had so many toys and beautiful things became bored so very quickly, constantly changing from one toy to the next and never really enjoying anything for very long. But to the contrary, so great was Amelia's imagination that every new day of her life became the most fantastic day ever, filled with excitement and adventure.

Following the death of her father while fishing with friends, Sarah Pennington moves back to her parents' farm in Cheshire where she spent her childhood, and which revives beautiful memories of growing up in the countryside.After a chance meeting with artist Jonathon Ripley, Sarah feels drawn into an image she finds in the local village gallery, so much so that she almost finds herself standing on its wooden bridge leading into dense woodland, surrounded by a cloudy mist. Just able to make out a mysterious figure seemingly standing amongst the trees, she buys the painting and persuades Jonathon to help her embark on the hunt to find out more about the bewildering image.Turning detective, they set out to discover other paintings that have also had a profound effect on their owners, some having terrifying experiences while others calming and serene. But Sarah is convinced her late father has something to do with the paintings as the mystery behind their owners begins to unravel, and her suspicions become even more unfathomable.
