The Mysterious Disappearance of Leon (I Mean Noel)
What's This Book About
When Mrs. Leon Carillon sets off to meet the husband she hasn’t seen since he was five, she doesn’t know what to expect. She certainly doesn’t bargain for the storm that knocks their boat overboard, or the fact that her husband will disappear, leaving only one very watterlogged clue. She also doesn’t know that while she searches for Leon (or is it Noel?) she will have to find the answer to these important questions: Were Tony and Tina really Siamese Twins? Why does the crossword puzzle expert wear a helmet during dinner? And what do the glub blubs mean?
