内容简介：
In this second book, the mystery deepens and darkens as we learn more about the Lilliputians in the strange gardens at Malplaquet. Their enemy Biddle takes over a nearby manor house, and his son starts at the school - in the same class as Jamie. Nigriff helps Jamie and Granny to discover more of the garden's secrets, especially its links with Lilliput itself, and Vicky doesn't trust one of her Volunteer team. The tiny people try to 'gain the capital,' as the Prophecy states, General Thorclan is as commanding as ever, and Yenech finds a new female friend...But the dangers are increasing; Jamie's brother, Charlie, is spending far too much time with young John Biddle - and Biddle himself also organises a huge Napoleonic Battle at Malplaquet as a threat to the little people. But, he hasn't reckoned on the statues getting involved...
