The “irresistible” orphan takes on a billionaire hypnotist with a sinister plan—and attends the Academy Awards—in the New York Times—​bestselling series! (Booklist)
 
Along with Rocky and Petula the pug, Molly is tracking the sinister activities of American businessman Primo Cell, who wants to become president and take over the world. He has all the Hollywood celebrities in his power, but Molly Moon has an amazing power of her own, which even she doesn’t know about. . . .
 
“Molly is irresistible: a skinny, eleven-year-old mastermind with wild hair, who eats ketchup sandwiches, defeats seemingly invincible adults with her amazing abilities, yet yearns for a family. Plot twists abound, characters aren’t who they seem to be, and danger escalates at a breakneck pace. The action is nonstop, but kids who need to care about characters will find this to be more than just roaring good sf; it’s a feel-good story that will leave them hungry for more about a winning kid who learns to be comfortable in her own skin.” —Booklist
 
“[A] page-turner.” —Kirkus Reviews
