Horton Halfpott; or, The Fiendish Mystery of Smugwick Manor; or, The Loosening of M'Lady Luggertuck's Corset
A servant boy becomes an unlikely hero when a thief strikes . . .
A humorous historical middle grade mystery with a colourful cast of characters, Horton Halfpott is an absolutely spiffing romp of a tale that makes a delightful read for children and adults alike.
"A romp from start to finish, Horton Halfpott pays satirical homage to Charles Dickens by way of Terry Pratchett and Lemony Snicket. Short chapters, a fast pace and plenty of linguistic and slapstistic humor will have young readers hoping that a sequel is planned.” -- Kirkus Reviews
