There are a few things you should know before you dive into this book: Chocolate is powerful. Eleven-year-olds are smarter than they look. Not all mysteries wear trench coats—some wear velvet and smell like fudge. This is a story about Sky Holloway. She’s not your average kid. She doesn’t play it safe, doesn’t follow instructions (especially the ones that say “Do Not Enter”), and absolutely refuses to let a good mystery go unsolved—even if it leads her straight into a secret candy vault, a rogue with a peppermint cane, or a recipe that can bend time. You might laugh. You might...

Dear Reader, This book was not supposed to happen. It began with a pencil, a portal, and a mysteriously opinionated sandwich—and quickly unraveled into time loops, arguing punctuation marks, and a talking sock puppet with boundary issues. Molly, Kramer, and Alex didn’t mean to break the story. But when their magical compass shattered and the narrator went rogue, they had only one choice left: write their way out. This is not a story about chosen ones. It’s a story about accidental ones—about what happens when kids with big hearts and bigger imaginations fall into a world that ...

Eastbourne or Bust A not-at-all-serious account of one man, one bike, and the long, painful road to the coast. Ever thought cycling the South Downs Way would be a charming, leisurely jaunt through scenic countryside? Yeah, so did I. Idiot. What actually happened was a four-day, mud-splattered odyssey of mechanical failures, chalky cliffside death slides, possessed bike saddles, and a surprising number of historical detours involving Romans, smugglers, haunted windmills and at least one overly dramatic Victorian tunnel. Armed with questionable fitness, a half-functioning bicycle, and the ...
