Mrs. Oldknow's home is a sprawling estate called Green Knowe, which has been in the family for centuries. As Tolly explores the house, he discovers that it is full of secrets and hidden passageways.

Through their stories, Tolly learns about the history of his family and the secrets that have been hidden for generations.
