(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Rob Shepperson. While their parents begin a twenty-five-year sentence for embezzling from a children's charity, Ivy and Ray try to make the best of their comically gloomy situation when they are ordered by the judge to live with the charity's highly unpleasant founders. The arch gothic mystery is illustrated with inviting black-and-white art.
