Minerva Mint series.
Translated by Chris Turner.
Illustrated by
Gabo León Bernstein.
As a baby, Minerva Mint was found in a suitcase in a London train station. Intent on learning about her past, Minerva and her new friends investigate family secrets and local puzzles, calling themselves the Order of the Owls. Scenes in dilapidated mansions and eerie old lighthouses create a mysterious mood for these Italian imports, and the adventure-loving characters are brave and likable. Review covers these Minerva Mint titles: The Legend of Black Bart and The Order of the Owls.
