But she gets through the hard times remembering the lovely French woman Perrine who looked after her when she was little. Even after Pear was sent away, she wrote to Nell every week, telling her about her new life. But then the letters stopped. So when Nell gets the chance to go to Paris with her parents, she is determined to track down Pear. But the mystery gets deeper when Pear isn't where she told Nell she'd be – and never had been!

And when streetwise Peter turns up, with his rescue cat and a surprising array of knowledge, she is sure that between them they have everything they need to survive.
