Стелла Монтгомери и загадка серебряного флакона

The mix of history and fantasy in 'Withering-By-Sea' creates such a rich world. I wonder what inspired her to combine these genres in this way.

The detailed descriptions made me nostalgic for childhood adventures and secret hideouts. Did the setting evoke similar memories for others?

Her determination really stood out to me. I’m curious what others think drives her to keep going amidst the challenges.
