In the corners of Beethoven Manor, secrets don’t turn to dust they turn to silk.
Ten-year-old Arthur is a collector of things the world has forgotten. While other children play in the sun, Arthur haunts the attic with a glass rod and a velvet-lined jar, harvesting the delicate cathedrals left behind by spiders. To his father, it’s just a mess to be swept away. To Arthur, every cobweb is a tapestry of whispers, holding the echoes of the house’s long-lost history.
But when the “Great Spring Cleaning” begins, Arthur discovers that the webs are more than just memories they are a silver veil protecting his world from a creeping, hollow darkness. With the help of a girl who gathers sunlight and an ancient spider made of moonlight, Arthur must trade his jars for a spindle. To save his home, he must stop being a collector and learn to be a Weaver.
Because once a memory is swept away, it’s gone forever.
