This is the story of a secret.
A secret so big and dangerous that even the story itself is a secret.
To find out what it is, you have to risk everything ...
Self-described survivalist Cass sees potential disaster everywhere, so no one believes her when a classmate is kidnapped by the dazzling but dangerous Dr L and Ms Mauvais. No one except super-talkative misfit Max-Ernest.
Cass and Max-Ernest team up to solve the mystery of the magician's notebook and the Symphony of Smells, discover a secret lost to the ages, and rescue one of their classmates before their brain is sucked out through a straw.
Along the way they must solve puzzles and word games and face incredible danger.
A great book with a twisting, turning plot ... Rivals the formidable Harry Potter and better than Lemony Snicket.' - Cameron, 12
Exciting and funny, but beware, because once you start reading it you can't stop.' - Louis, 9
* A blurb is not a space alien. It's not even a blob or a burp. It's just a bunch of white lies and exaggerations designed to entice you to buy a book. Read with caution.
