Birdie lures the bogles out of their lairs with her sweet songs—and Alfred kills them before they kill her.

Or so it seems, until the orphans of London start to disappear… This historical fantasy for young readers features an &“action-packed story and likable characters&” along with a heroine to cheer for (School Library Journal). &“Pitch-perfect.&”—Booklist (starred review)
