About this ebook
An orphan who had no clue about her supernatural powers, Chess is still playing catch-up in the hidden village of Loobly, where she inherited an ancient library. Just when she and her cat Kafka are beginning to feel at home in this magical realm, someone dumps her worst enemy’s body on her property.
Now people with a grudge against her family are trying to pin the blame on her. They’ve even hired a self-styled prophetess to issue bizarre predictions. On Chess’s side are an encrypted book of knowledge that only she can read, a belligerent tree with vision-inducing fruit, and a handsome detective. Not to mention a posse of clever cats led by her feline buddy!
If you enjoy small-town mysteries, original plot twists and quirky characters, escape to the Forgotten Village Magical Mysteries by USA Today bestselling author Jacqueline Diamond (A Cat’s Garden of Secrets). “You’ll fall in love with Chess Vevoda, and the wild world she’s stumbled into!” writes National Book Award winner Neal Shusterman (Challenger Deep).
