The Murmuring Mirror
Book 5 in the Amberwood Hall Ballet School series
A summer of dance, secrets, and ghostly whispers…
When Lauren and her friends return to Amberwood Hall for the summer term, the stakes are higher than ever. A prestigious summer school in New York is up for grabs, and only ten students will be chosen. With fierce competition and just one scholarship available, Lauren is desperate to prove herself—especially with Ethan set on winning too.
As rehearsals begin for a brand-new ballet—The Mirror—choreographed by the enigmatic guest teacher Ms LeBlanc, the pressure mounts. But it’s not just pirouettes and pliés that are challenging Lauren. A strange mirror, found in the depths of the old cellar, begins to affect the dancers in eerie ways. Whispers echo from within. Reflections don’t quite match. And when Lauren uncovers the spirit of a long-lost dancer, the real mystery begins.
With help from her ghostly friend Grace and ever-resourceful Nyree, Lauren races to uncover the truth behind the unfinished choreography, decipher a coded notebook, and lay a restless spirit to rest. But as emotions simmer and friendships are tested—especially when relationships start to fracture—Lauren must find the courage to trust herself, on stage and off.
Perfect for readers 9+, The Murmuring Mirror blends ballet dreams with supernatural thrills, heartfelt friendship, and a hint of pre-teen romance in a truly unforgettable term at Amberwood Hall.
