A House of Found Objects

For fans of Margaret Peterson Haddix's Greystone Secrets series comes a mystery that's ';delightful, charming, and full of unexpected twists' (Shelf Awareness, starred review) and packed with cryptic clues and wonderful word puzzles as two cousins search for their grandmother's missing portrait. Twelve-year-old Bea from Passaic, New Jersey, is visiting her family in Paris for the summer when her grandmother's most precious heirlooma drawing by Henri Matissegoes missing. After a cryptic clue arrives on Bea's doorstep suggesting its whereabouts, Bea is determined to pursue the lead. Without the French skills to navigate her way around the landmarks of Paris, she teams up with her cousin, Cline, whose clear-eyed French directness makes her a perfect partner for curious, problem-solving Bea. The girls embark on a city-wide search, deciphering riddles, solving puzzles, and cracking codes as they try to locate the Matisse, find a thief, and identify their mysterious benefactor.Author: Beckett-King, Jo,author Contributors: Beckett-King, Jo,author Binding: paperback Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Published/Release Date: 21 Jul 2026 Format: Paperback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers Author/Director/Artist: Jo Beckett-King Dimension (cm): 194x130x18 mm Package Dimension (cm): 22x248x190 mm Item Weight (g): 236 Package Weight (g): 220
