11yo Winnie Zeng (and David Zuo as well) have been accepted into the Spirit Council as Agents - with badges and an assignment. Spirits are causing trouble again in Groton, they are becoming more powerful, and Winnie and David have only until Halloween to round them up, a daunting task for 2 entry level shaman agents, so the council has assigned a mentor, but she's their same age and also a a know-it-all.
Winnie Zeng is proving to be a fun series. I love the banter between the elderly overspirits; I love the cooking connection and the recipes included at the end of the book, although there is less cooking and cookie eating than in book one (which I missed.). The action starts right away, so when a reader picks it up, they won't want to put it back down. David and Winnie are Chinese.
