Rose, a young girl from an orphanage, just wants to make her own way in the world and not live off of others’ charity. So when she is chosen to work for Mr. Fountain she is overjoyed to be making her own money. When she arrives at his mansion, it looks magical, but it’s not just that it’s grand; there is actual magic going through the mansion. When she hears from the other servants that there are children going missing, she knows that she needs to be careful when running errands. When she returns to the orphanage for a visit, she discovers that her best friend has found her mother and is no longer there, but things are not right. She believes that she is another child to go missing and is determined to find out what has happened to her and the other children that have gone missing.
