Violet's story

Violet lives in the Hopefield farm with her mother and father.  Violet's brother died in the war.
Violet is deaf and mute when she was born. She is also a good artist. Violet really wanted to go to art school but it was too expensive.

Violet's mother and father signed a contract for a mining company to drill for precious minerals on  their hill. But there was a cave in at the mine and the drill got stuck in the rubble. The mining company tried to get it out but it was trapped. 

Violet crawled in when she was little and wrapped the drill in cloth so when the company got the drill out they will not have to fix it up again. Violet cared so much about the drill because if the company got the drill out her family will receive a withdraw reward.

It was her one and only chance to go to art school.

This is Violet's picture of Nicholas in The Boy on the Bluff.

Nicholas talked to his friends about what he read in Mr Rothchild's diary.  In Missing treasure, missing people, and the mysterious Mr Booker, Nicholas, Violet and John were trying to guess who Mr. Booker was.
