Description

For fans of Lemony Snicket’s Series of Unfortunate Events and Trenton Lee Stewart’s Mysterious Benedict Society comes the fourth book in the Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place, the acclaimed and hilarious Victorian mystery series by Maryrose Wood.

In The Interrupted Tale, Miss Penelope Lumley receives an invitation to speak at the annual Celebrate Alumnae Knowledge Exposition (or CAKE) at the Swanburne Academy for Poor Bright Females. Optoomuchstic as ever, Penelope hopes to give her CAKE talk, see some old friends, and show off the Incorrigible children to Miss Mortimer, but instead she finds her beloved school in an uproar.

And when Penelope is asked by the Swanburne Academy board of trustees to demonstrate the academic progress of her three wolfish students so the board can judge the true worth of a Swanburne education, the future of her alma mater—and of her job as governess to the Incorrigibles—hangs in the balance.

A Witty, Lemony Snicket-Style Narrator: Perfect for fans of clever wordplay, hilarious asides, and a narrator who speaks directly to the reader. Mysterious Boarding School: Penelope’s beloved Swanburne Academy is in an uproar, and she must uncover the secrets threatening her alma mater. Found Family: Follow the adventures of earnest governess Penelope Lumley and her three very unusual, wolf-raised pupils, Alexander, Beowulf, and Cassiopeia. Victorian England Setting: A hilarious and heartwarming tale filled with grand estates, quirky characters, and the prim-and-proper charm of a bygone era.
