Book
The lost sapphire / Belinda Murrell.
Marli is staying with her dad in Melbourne, and missing her friends. Then she discovers a mystery - an abandoned mansion is to be returned to her family after many years. Marli sneaks into the locked garden to explore, and meets Luca, a boy who has his own connection to Riversleigh. A peacock hatbox, an antique camera and a key on a velvet ribbon provide clues to what happened long ago . . . In 1922, Violet is fifteen. Her life is filled with boating parties, picnics and extravagant balls. An army of servants looks after her family - including the young Russian chauffeur, Nikolai. Over one summer, Violet must decide what is important to her. What will she learn about Melbourne's slums as she defies her father's orders to help a friend? Who will her sister marry? And what breathtaking secret is Nikolai hiding?
