Hannibal, James R. The Lost Property Office, 387 pages.
Simon & Schuster, 2016. $17. Content: G (some danger).
Jack, 13, his little sister Sadie, and his mother are in
London because their father has disappeared while on a business trip. Their mother’s only instruction to not leave
the hotel. When Sadie takes off after a
man she thinks is her father, however, the siblings find themselves in a secret
London, where magic is possible and Jack is actually a descendant of a long
line of Trackers. Now he has been drawn
into a problem much larger than just his father’s disappearance, and potentially
fatal.
For those who enjoy a little magic, a lot of mystery and
teens doing courageous things, this is a sure bet. The cover hits just the right note to help
sell the book.
