Laura and Max are twins. They live in London with their mum and dad. They always have
interesting adventures on holiday. They visit different cities and countries. This summer they are going to
stay in a small cottage in the country. The cottage is in a village called Stonecross, near Salisbury. Max and
Laura aren’t very happy.
”Boring!”says Max. He looks at the map. ”The cottage is in the middle of a field. What can we do in
the middle of a field?”
”Why are we going there?”, asks Laura.
Their dad is very tired. He says he wants to relax and to sleep a lot. Their mum loves the country.
She wants to walk and paint.
”It is a very beautiful part of England”, she says. ”Full of culture, tradition, mystery...”
”Mystery?” say Max and Laura together.
”Mystery! OK, let’s go!”
