Content: G; Violence: PG (some danger).
Twins Scarlet and Ivy Gray are both safely back in Rookwood
School. Now that the evil headmaster Mr.
Bartholomew and the cruel Miss Fox are both gone, life is much simpler. When the ballet teacher, Miss Finch, announces
that the school ballet this year is going to be Sleeping Beauty, Scarlet can
only see that she wants to be the titular character. Ivy, though, is dealing with a bully and when
Miss Finch goes missing, she gets only more upset and worried. Something is still not right at Rookwood, but
no one will listen to her.
Younger readers may enjoy this light mystery after having
read the first in the series. This one
is not quite as tense and dangerous as the first, though. I don’t see how this can go any further than
the two.
