The Secret of Castle Cant: Being an Account of the Remarkable Adventures of Lucy Wickwright, Maidservant and Spy

292 pp. | Little | September, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-316-10848-0 $16.99
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by David Christiana. Set in a country hidden by mountains, this story follows Lucy, the young servant of Cant's next ruler, and the mystery surrounding Lucy's birth and the murder of her family. The entertaining yarn's lack of focus results in a confusing plot but is mitigated by Lucy's steadfast support for Pauline, her mistress. Further adventures of these two are sure to follow.
