A Spy in the House


    Hey guys!

          Today I am going to tell you about A Spy in the House by Ying Lee. (the whole series is called The Agency).

              In 1850, where thieves get hanged no matter how old, twelve-year-old Mary Quinn is one of those thieves. She has been accused of stealing, and is sentenced to death. Then, she is offered an education at Miss Scrimshaws Academy for Girls. Little does she know, this is only a cover for an all-female agency that-now seventeen-Mary is entered into. She will be a Lady companion searching for smuggled and stolen goods, or information. During this, she uncovers secrets that will change the game for everyone.

              This is a very exciting read! There is a little romance, but it is mostly the mystery. How the characters are portrayed, gives you little subtle hints as to what is going to happen, but it is not so much predictable.

           See you tomorrow!
