A life shattered. A secret hidden. A friendship that could save everything.
Rosie Brown's world falls apart overnight. Her luxurious life vanishes when her father disappears, leaving behind a mountain of debt and a cloud of scandal. Forced to leave her private school and move to a rundown house, Rosie becomes the new girl at the tough James Crawley Academy-a target for bullies and an outsider looking in.
Her only solace comes from an unlikely friendship with Milly, the quirky ginger minger everyone ignores, and the fierce loyalty of the mysterious Biggs twins. Determined to reclaim a piece of her old self, Rosie does the unthinkable: she starts a girls' football team. But as she fights for a place on the pitch, she uncovers a deeper mystery.
Her father left a clue-a cryptic message hidden in a letter addressed to Rosebud. Someone else is desperate to find it too. Soon, Rosie is being watched by dangerous men who will stop at nothing to get what they want, men who believe she holds the key to a stolen fortune.
Caught between a past she can't understand and a future she must fight for, Rosie must use all her courage and wit to protect her family, uncover the truth, and save herself before it's too late.
A gripping story of resilience, friendship, and secrets, perfect for fans of Jacqueline Wilson and Robert Muchamore.
