Publisher's Synopsis
Dark and sinister things are afoot when a young woman goes missing and, eleven-year-old, Mary is pulled into the mystery. But worse things seem to be following Mary and getting dangerously close.
Can she figure out what happened and solve her own family mystery before she becomes a missing person herself?
With a backdrop of dark humor and intrigue, this book is the first in The M. Goose Chronicles, and aims to combine a classic feel with a contemporary mystery story, using artful language and is steeped in serious humor and crafty storytelling. Reminiscent of Lewis Carroll's voice of Alice along with the drollery style of Lemony Snicket, the book will have middle-grade readers enjoying the fun and inventive twists to the characters and places of their beloved nursery tales.
