Description
Ever since their parents went missing on a deep-sea expedition in the southern Atlantic, Petronella Polidori and her siblings have been living with their eccentric grandparents in the “Polidorium”, a dilapidated villa by the sea. They quickly realise that a lot of mysteries are hidden between the “wandering walls” – and the funeral parlour in the cellar is just one of them. Who are Mousegret, the Dead Aunt, Clammy Fingers... and what is the power held by Hodder Morkel, the dead whaler who once owned the Polidorium? When her horrible classmate Marie-Hedwig claims to know her family secret, Petronella decides to overcome her fear and get to the bottom of it all…
Anja Fislage’s debut novel, which received a prize even before publication, is a cabinet of entrancing characters, original (and creepy) secrets, and breath-taking twists, brilliantly brought to life in young illustrator Verena Wugeditsch’s illustrations. A little masterpiece!

Author Biography
Anja Fislage unfortunately didn’t grow up in a haunted house by the sea, but she had a nice childhood all the same. She loves adventure, but prefers sitting at her desk to sailing the seas. For that reason she studied literature before working as an editor for various publishers. One day it occurred to her that you can have adventures while sitting at your desk, too, and she has been doing that ever since and thoroughly enjoying it. The Polidoris is her children’s book debut.
