As soon as Robin Bridge gets to London, the eerie events begin. From the zoo to the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace, from the Sherlock Holmes walking tour to Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum, not to mention the Tower of London and the fabulous museums they visit, Robin and her sister, Jo, try to figure out who is following them. And why. Does it have anything to do with a suitcase full of knives? How about the strange manager of their Bed and Breakfast and her menacing son Simon? The mysteries pile up, but they don’t stop the girls from enjoying lively London.
