520    "1752, Midsummer. Following a desperate summons from her 
       mother, Tabitha Hart departs London for her home village 
       of Netherlea--only to discover that her mother has 
       allegedly drowned. Determined to discover the truth about 
       the Widow Hart's death, Tabitha consults her mother's 
       almanack and uncovers a series of cryptic notes describing
       her terror of someone she names only as 'D'. Joining 
       forces with mysterious young writer Nat Starling, Tabitha 
       begins a race against time to unmask 'D' as more murders 
       follow. But as the sun retreats and snow cuts off 
       Netherlea from the outside world, Tabitha and Nat are 
       forced to face the darkest hours of their lives. With the 
       Almanack predicting the year will reach a 'violent, bloody
       end', can Tabitha survive to bring her mother's killer to 
       justice? The Almanack is a richly told tale of spirit and 
       superstition and contains fifty authentic riddles to 
       puzzle the reader." -- Dust jacket.
