Final Recap

Current reading recap

Nora, Sam and Aunt Iris arrive at the Moonwater Hotel for what should be a quiet weekend by the sea.

The hotel is old, beautiful and strange. Mr Vale, the manager, welcomes them with polite words and mysterious warnings. Nora notices hidden details: shells in the walls, an unusual sign at reception, a small blue door drawn in the hotel guide and the sentence:

The tide remembers everything.

Nora and Sam follow a black cat with one white paw to the beach at low tide. There, they find a wooden box buried in the wet sand. Inside the box are a map, a blue stone and a note with a riddle.

When Nora places the blue stone in a pool of water, a blue door rises from beneath the beach.

Mr Vale and Aunt Iris arrive. The Moonwater Guest Book opens by itself and writes three names:

Nora Bell. Sam Bell. Iris Bell.

Then it gives them their first choice:

sand, sea or sky.
