Summary

A funny, moving and absorbing story about a young girl's attempts to learn more about her dead father through the objects she finds in a cardboard box he left her. Scarlett and her friend Ellie go on a quest, following the clues and always remembering to 'keep looking up'. Was her dad a thief? A spy? And what does it mean to be his daughter?

Dear Scarlett Summary

Dear Scarlett by Fleur Hitchcock

All this time Scarlett's thought her dad was a thief, but years after his death a strange man turns up at the door and hands her a box, "on her father's instructions". Inside is a baffling series of clues that leads Scarlett and her friend, Ellie, on a wild, scary, often funny journey of discovery about her father and his mysterious life. But the more the girls learn, the more danger they're in. They must stay one step ahead of the sinister mayoress and her chauffer as they race to unravel her dad's final clue: Keep looking up.

About Fleur Hitchcock

Born in Chobham and raised outside Winchester, Fleur Hitchcock grew up as the youngest child of three. She spent her smallest years reading Tintin and Batman, and searching for King Alfred's treasure.

Now living outside Bath, between parenting and writing, Fleur works with her husband, a toymaker, looks after other people's gardens and tries to grow vegetables.
