Judith Rossell worked as a government scientist (not a mad scientist, a normal kind of scientist), for a cotton spinning company (which made threads for t-shirts and tea bags), and studied textile design in Scotland before becoming a full-time author and illustrator. She has illustrated or written nearly a hundred children's books, including some by such internationally bestselling authors as Garth Nix and Jackie French. Jude lives in Melbourne, which is down in the bottom right corner of Australia, with a cat the size of a walrus. Visit her at JudithRossell.com.

"A gratifying continuation of Stella's story."--Kirkus Reviews
"5/15/17"
"Rewarding, poetic, old-fashioned, warm but never treacly, and
packed with dramatic tension, and although major plot points are
resolved, there's still room for another look at this world and
Stella's evolving place within it--fingers crossed."--BCCB "June
2017"
"Shades of Lemony Snicket's own Dr. Montgomery, herpetologist
guardian of the Beaudelaire children, are present here, and
Rossell's eccentric characters and tragedy-tinged mystery will
likely attract similar readers. Danger, hidden rooms, revelations,
and a dash of fantasy make this an entertaining and satisfying
sequel."--Booklist "June 14th, 2017"
