Emily's Penny Dreadful

Emily’s aunt and uncle come to stay, following a house fire. They take over Emily’s room, something that Emily is less than pleased about. All that they bring with them, apart from the clothes they wear, is a valuable, Victorian, Penny Dreadful. Uncle Raymond is a curmudgeonly character, a writer whose muse has abandoned him. Emily is in love with words and writing. She hopes Uncle Raymond will help her finish the Penny Dreadful she decides to write. He is very reluctant, something that adds to Emily’s annoyance. But then she begins to realise that Uncle Raymond has a sad secret that he wants to keep hidden. Can they help each other?
