Seren is an orphan. She learns that her godfather has agreed to take her in. On the trip there, she is given a mysterious package at the train station. Once she gets to her new home, she will try to figure out how to get it back to its owner. She is so excited for her new life. She's heard that the family lives in a mansion and are quite rich. She'll be there just in time to have a wonderful Christmas. But when she arrives, the place is dark and cold. The disappearance of the young boy named Tomos has left a black cloud over the mansion. It's as if all the happiness disappeared with him. Seren decides to find him and make everything right again. This is a great story. I love Seren. She is fearless. I look forward to the rest of the series. I received a copy from Net Galley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This was a really easy to read quick middle grade. I really liked our main character and the crow was great. I thought the book was well paced and gave just enough information to keep me going. I really hope there is a continuation as I'd love to find out more about the crow and his history.
