Produktbeschreibung

The irrepressibly charming follow-up to the 'truly marvellous' (Independent) How to Be Brave: a rip-roaring tale of rebellious girls, Parisian adventures and many more biscuits

Some stories are about love.¿Some are about revolutionaries.¿Some are about macarons. This one is about all three.

Edie comes from a family of troublemakers. When her activist parents leave Paris to protest around the globe, her talent for mischief lands her in hot water with her strict grandmother, who packs her off to the School of the Good Sisters to make her into a 'proper young lady'.

But this is no ordinary school: here, the nuns teach genuinely useful things, like how to build a perfect library, cater for midnight feasts and make poison darts. Adventurous Edie feels right at home - until a school trip to her actual home in Paris is planned. Things in her grandmother's chateau are not as they were, however, and soon Edie and her rebellious friends are embroiled in a mystery involving a precious painting, a very persistent burglar and a secret from her grandmother's past...
