The Secret of Platform 13

Under Platform 13 at King's Cross Station lies a magical door that opens only once every nine years, leading four enchanting figures—a wizard, an ogre, a fey, and a young hag—on a quest to find their prince, who was stolen as a baby. Now transformed into a wealthy, uninterested boy named Raymond Trottle, he resists their attempts to rescue him. Shortlisted for the Smarties Prize, Eva Ibbotson's The Secret of Platform 13 promises a thrilling adventure filled with magic and intrigue.
