Abigail and Jackaby must tame an enormous (and carnivorous) rabbit, defend a castle, and master a dirigible if they want to find the treasure and get back to New Fiddleham alive.
Abigail hopes that
her birthday will slip by unnoticed and uncelebrated, but her employer,
detective of the supernatural R. F. Jackaby, has other plans. Using magical
party crackers that teleport the pair to unknown destinations in time and space
and a cryptic map that may lead to a forgotten treasure, Jackaby intends to
give Abigail what he considers to be the best gift of all--adventure.
This e-novella came
out as a teaser/bridger for those who are waiting for Beastly Bones to be
published. Although I prefer to hang out with Jacakby and Abigail for
longer than 100 pages, this was a great "filler" while waiting
for Beastly
Bones.
Miss Rook would prefer that Jackaby forget her birthday, but what he has in
mind takes them on a while treasure seeking quest across England and even
goblin territories based on the song Whisky in the Jar. If you enjoy time with
these characters, this madcap mini adventure won't leave you wanting.
