. Stella escapes her bandages and the room and hears Alberta talking to Stella’s headmistress on the telephone saying something like, “Don’t expect Stella back anytime soon.”
In the cellar, Stella meets Soot a ghost of a chimney sweep .Soot and Stella agree to become detectives to try and find out what has really happened to Stella’s parents and if Alberta is responsible
Stella and Soot manage to escape. They inspect the wrecked Rolls Royce that was her parents and manage to telephone the police who do not seem in a hurry to come to Stella’s rescue.yes
