When Sparrow sets out to track down her missing mother after her father collapses on her eleventh birthday, she winds up on the FBI’s radar, in this debut Middle Grade novel full of adventure, heart, and humor!
Sparrow C. Jones doesn’t understand why her mother left without a trace almost two months ago. Or why her dad collapsed on her eleventh birthday. Or why she has to explain all this to the FBI, along with the fact that her new neighbor Mrs. Violet Dalglish did not kidnap her, and the weird boy in her neighborhood Duncan was not an accomplice (at least not intentionally).
This is the true statement of how all that came to be (in the correct order, on account of the FBI agents not getting it right the first time). And how Sparrow had just ten days to save her dad's life. And how, in hopes of helping him, she set out to track down her missing mother.
Luckily, their cat Sprockets (who thinks he’s a dog), Mrs. Violet Dalglish, Duncan, and a motley crew of other residents in the town of Broken Heart were willing to assist. Too bad they incurred the wrath of the wealthiest man in Broken Heart (and probably all of New Hampshire), who not only has a short temper but might have a particular interest in Sparrow’s parents…
