• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The third installment of this Edgar Award-nominated series is another engrossing two-pronged adventure. Following the Swallowtales writers' conference, there are two visitors to the island. Chase Kannen, a dashing, 30ish explorer/adventurer arrives on a huge expedition yacht in search of a bronze statue of Cassandra (from Greek mythology) lost off the deck of a cargo ship in a storm on the lake in the 60's. He has a film crew with him, making a documentary about the search. They find the statue, but shortly thereafter, while it is displayed on the deck of the yacht, it disappears. If it's not found, Kannen will be able to collect the insurance money, which is in the millions. Meanwhile, Lark and Pip's Aunt Abigail, their mom's estranged sister, arrives by ferry. The sisters haven't seen their aunt since they were 5 and 3, and they're not sure why she has decided to come now. Of course, it turns out Aunt Abigail has heard about the deed of land on Swallowtail that might leave Lark and Pip very rich. Turns out Aunt Abigail has a scheme to get the girls to sell their rights to the land . . . with her help, and "for a small percentage."

Autorenporträt

In a time not long after the fifth extinction event, Edgar Award-nominated author Michael D. Beil came of age on the shores of Pymatuning Lake, where the ducks walk on the fish. (Look it up. Seriously.) In addition to The Swallowtail Legacy, he is the author of many middle grade novels including the Red Blazer Girls series. For reasons that can't be disclosed until September 28, 2041, he now lives somewhere in Portugal with his wife and their two white cats, Bruno and Maisie.
