  • The Curious Adventures of Jimmy McGee and Miranda the Great

    Eleanor Estes, Lyssa Jacobs Browne, Jane Jacobs

    Preloaded Digital Audio Player (Findaway World Llc, June 1, 2006)
    Night had fallen, and the woman looked down at the crumpled letter, as if, in absolute darkness, she could read the postscript: Only a monster can play this game. In Chicago, an FBI agent is killed in a psychiatrist's waiting room. In New York, the jurors from a controversial trial are murdered one by one. The only connections between the two: a flamboyant shock-jock, whose in-air comments seem to be taking him dangerously close to the edge, and a woman, her body misshapen since childhood, whose job it is to clean up crime scenes and maybe create them as well. This is a federal case, and Mallory's been told that the FBI wants no part of her. But she knows something nobody else does and, besides, when has she ever cared what anyone else wanted?

Stars and animals speak, wizards and giants cast wicked spells and young heroes and heroines brave all dangers to come home safe in the end. Enchanting, perfectly judged. —The New Statesman.
