House of Many Doors

language (Merry Go Round Books March 29, 2014) , 1 edition
Every year on Halloween night, villains from around the world gather to attend a secretive event known as a midnight auction. Here the wealthy, the diabolical and the curious get to bid on items from the darker side of history: antique spell-books, knives used by famous murderers, hands of glory. It's not the kind of place for those with a weak constitution and it's certainly not the kind of place for a twelve-year old boy, no matter how brave he might think he is …

Tony Lott lives with his uncle in a dusty antiques shop in London, England.

Joseph Martell—said uncle—is an old man harboring a terrible secret.

When the pair are lured to the grandest midnight auction of all, they find themselves caught up in a frightening conspiracy. At the center of the puzzle lies Marshwood, the House of Many Doors. But what does its owner want with Tony? And why is a teenage witch with a short temper the key to unraveling the whole mystery?
