THE MAIL ON SUNDAY

Mary Hoffman, The Guardian, 22nd March 2008
Although just published, it has the air of a classic, the sort of literary pedigree that makes it a classy read.

The Best New Children's Books The Best New Children's Books
Linda Newbery's strong evocation of place and her skill in interweaving past and present is demonstrated in this compelling mystery.

The Telegraph, 14th March 2008
... the desire for companionship and belonging ... touchingly described ... the house reveals its satisfying secrets.

Product Description
Tizzie's unpredictable lifestyle with her feckless mother has brought her to Roven Mere, a mysterious, rambling, isolated, lonely house. She and her mother are expecting to be greeted by Lord Rupert and his daughter, Greta (whom Tizzie thinks will be a longed-for friend). But when they arrive only the staff are in residence. Tizzie presses the reclusive Finnigan for clues as to Greta's whereabouts, but he only answers in riddles. Gradually, however, Tizzie unscrambles the clues and learns all about the history of the house and its inhabitants - and with it, the astonishing truth as to why she has been brought to Roven Mere. This is a totally up-to-the-minute story, in the spirit of the highly-acclaimed CATCALL and as atmospheric as Linda's acclaimed teen fiction. And like many of Linda Newbery's novels, it reaches into the past to complete the patchwork of her richly-drawn characters' lives.

Synopsis
Tizzie's unpredictable lifestyle with her feckless mother has brought her to Roven Mere, a mysterious, rambling, isolated, lonely house. She and her mother are expecting to be greeted by Lord Rupert and his daughter, Greta (whom Tizzie thinks will be a longed-for friend). But when they arrive only the staff are in residence. Tizzie presses the reclusive Finnigan for clues as to Greta's whereabouts, but he only answers in riddles. Gradually, however, Tizzie unscrambles the clues and learns all about the history of the house and its inhabitants - and with it, the astonishing truth as to why she has been brought to Roven Mere. This is a totally up-to-the-minute story, in the spirit of the highly-acclaimed CATCALL and as atmospheric as Linda's acclaimed teen fiction. And like many of Linda Newbery's novels, it reaches into the past to complete the patchwork of her richly-drawn characters' lives.

From the Inside Flap
'It won't be different. It'll be the same as always. I'll just start to get used to it, then you'll want to move again.' Tizzie's changeable life with her difficult mother has brought her to Roven Mere, a mysterious, rambling house, deep in the countryside. She's curious to meet Lord Rupert, the owner, and his daughter Greta, who Tizzie hopes will be the friend she longs for. But the house seems like a museum, and no one knows when Lord Rupert and Greta will come home. At least the hermit-like Finnigan is willing to answer Tizzie's questions - but only by telling stories. As she explores the house and unravels its secrets, Tizzie makes a startling discovery about why she's been brought to Roven Mere . . . Winner of the 2006 Costa Children's Book of the Year Award for her novel Set in Stone, Linda Newbery is the author of more than thirty highly-acclaimed books for readers of all ages. Linda wanted to be an author from the age of eight but it wasn't until she was teaching English in a comprehensive school that she began submitting her work to publishers. She now writes full-time from her home in Northamptonshire, and is much in demand as a speaker in schools and libraries and at festivals and conferences. 'Nevermore' is her fourth novel for Orion Children's Books.

From the Back Cover
The air was hushed and silent, as if no one had disturbed it recently. 'What's all this ready for?' Tizzie asked. 'Is someone coming?' 'No,' Davy answered. 'It's always like this. No one ever comes.' 'It feels like the house is waiting.' 'That's because it is. Always waiting.'

About the Author
Linda lives in rural Northamptonshire with her husband and four cats. Apart from writing, she spends time reading, gardening, swimming, going to the cinema and theatre, and walking. A former secondary school teacher, she is now highly-regarded as a reviewer, literary prize judge, writing tutor, as well as an acclaimed novelist for readers of all ages.
