Mouse is a determined 10-year-old girl. Intelligent, curious, funny, she is also an elective mute. When her mum moves them both out of town to an isolated house in the Pennines, nosy Mouse investigates the strange man/boy at the bottom of the garden, the damaged son of a neighbour. She also becomes fascinated by the remaining possessions in her house of the old man, William, who lived there before being moved to a nursing home. Like a detective she researches his recent movements, his links with the neighbour and, most disturbingly, his connections with his distant and secret wartime past.
