Natasha's Will

The story of Natasha's aristocratic Russian family in 1917 and their desperate struggle to escape to Paris is interwoven into a modern story of a family's efforts to find Natasha's will which they are sure will give them the right to stay in their Scottish home. Natasha's story is vividly detailed both in the account of their life in Russia and in the harsh, changed fortunes of their escape across Europe. The McKinnon family who looked after Natasha have to follow a series of literary clues to find the missing will and establish their right to their home. The clues have to be followed through some of the children's favourite books which creates another level of interest. An exciting and well-crafted read which mixes a range of genres and provides something for many groups of readers.
