'When friends Hannah Plum and Patti Woo find a beautiful fan at an antiques fair, they also find a whole of trouble. The fan is from a nearby manor, where strange things keep happening. And they’re all related to four paintings on the fan. The statues in the hedge maze have lost their heads. The pond’s turned black overnight. All the flowers in the morning garden have withered. The fan’s owner is convinced it’s cursed – and when Hannah and Patti investigate, things get even more sinister. 

'Who’s that cloaked lady in the garden? What does the last painting on the fan symbolise? And why does everyone keep talking about a ghost? Is the fan just an accessory … or could it be an accessory to murder?'  (Publication summary)
