A ROYAL CONUNDRUM The Misfits, Book 1

Cindy Kay narrates a thrilling adventure full of crime-fighting misfits, jewel thieves, and cats. Olive Coben Zang is alarmed when her parents tell her she'll soon be attending a new school--the mysterious RASCH, a castle on an island in the middle of San Francisco Bay. But once she's there, the timid 12-year-old finds adventures galore. Olive's soft voice grows in strength over the course of the story as she makes friends with fellow outcasts who are recruited for top-secret missions to protect the school and city. Kay's dynamic tone and pacing are spot-on as she narrates the increasingly over-the-top escapades of the unlikely kid heroes, their zany instructors, and thieving masterminds. A fun and action-packed caper that makes for ideal family listening. E.E.C. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2024]
