The Finding of Martha Lost
By Caroline Wallace
Synopsis
Highly recommended!
Martha is lost.
She's been lost since she was a baby, abandoned in a suitcase on the train from Paris to Liverpool. Ever since, she's waited at the station lost property office for someone to claim her. It's been sixteen. years, but she's still hopeful.
In the meantime, there are lost property mysteries to solve: a suitcase that may have belonged to The Beatles, for one. And that stuffed monkey that keeps appearing. But there is one mystery Martha has never been able to solve until anonymous letters start to arrive, offering clues to the past she longs to know.
Time is running out, though. The authorities have found out about the girl in lost property, and if Martha can't discover who she really is, she will lose everything.
