In 1919, six adventurous Brownies-Lulu, Minnie, Lottie, Agatha, Bernadette, and Beryl-discover an old lantern in Ashdown Forest with a cryptic riddle etched into its base: "Seek where the raven guards the past, beneath the stones where shadows last." Following clues to a raven-haunted monolith and a hidden stone circle, they unearth an 1859 surveyor's journal and smuggler's treasure. The journal leads them to a legendary healing spring, where they witness its miraculous properties first hand. Their findings attract local historians, revealing the lantern's ties to forest wardens and Napoleonic-era smugglers. Celebrated as junior historians, the girls return their discoveries to the village museum, proud to have preserved a piece of Sussex's past. As they gather around their campfire, the restored lantern's glow reminds them that the forest still holds secrets waiting to be uncovered-and their next adventure is just beginning
