What is A Trick Of The Light about?
During a school residential at a creepy old manor house, ten-year-old Hazel feels ignored by her friends. When she meets Alice, another lonely pupil, the two invent a ghost story to frighten their classmates. Hazel creates spooky tricks while Alice hides nearby, ready to make the legend seem real. But the games soon become more frightening than expected, and Hazel begins to suspect that Alice may know more about the manor—and its ghost—than she is letting on.
