Full Description
LONDON, OCTOBER 1775
After her previous solo escapades around Europe, Lettice Breech is itching to go on another adventure - and thankfully, a trip to Scotland with her wonderful best friend Gio is just the thing!
However, Pa is becoming increasingly sick. And Letty soon discovers that things are not at all well in her home at Lamb Place. Her trusty butler, Fortnum, and cook, Nell, have been keeping secrets. Letty needs to find money to save her Pa, protect Fortnum, Nell & Gio, and save her home. She needs treasure.
So, when a mysterious socialite appears back in London, promising a tantalising mystery and more treasure than she can imagine, Letty finds herself embroiled in a thrilling new mystery right in her home city. Baffling poems, puzzling clues in dictionaries, and curious notes between a mysterious group known only as The Alphabetters lead Letty on a whirlwind adventure through the streets of 18th century London, and - nearly - a murder. . .
In her continued search for truth, can Letty use her deductive skills to unravel the mystery of the word thieves?
An exciting adventure for 9-12 year old readers from debut talent, Penny Boxall; perfect for fans of Netflix's plucky ENOLA HOLMES, the humour of Hana Tooke's THE UNADOPTABLES, and the caper of Katherine Rundell's ROOFTOPPERS.
