Jack isn’t surprised when his absentee parents send him to live with a grandmother he’s only met three times, but his bags are barely unpacked before she confines him to the property surrounding her spooky rooming house. Although most of the rooms are vacant, Jack is far from alone in Glastonbury Manor. His Gran isn’t a kindly old lady who bakes cookies, and her freakishly strong housekeeper never says a word. One of Jack’s fellow boarders is an ex-soldier with a remarkable number of scars, and then there’s Ivy—a surly girl with a mysterious past. Jack is determined to spend the last summer before high school solving the mysteries of Glastonbury Manor. Unfortunately, his grandmother has her own ideas about how he should spend his time.
Ivy’s Tangle is the first book in the Legend of the White Sword series. Readers of all ages, who enjoyed visiting Middle Earth, Hogwarts, or Narnia, will want to join Jack on this epic fantasy adventure.
