A spellbinding middle grade fantasy about three sisters—adventurous Betty, curious Charlie, and proper Fliss—who go on a quest to break the curse that’s haunted their family for generations.

All Betty Widdershins wants is an adventure—one that takes her far away from Crowstone, the gloomy island where she’s always lived. But instead of an adventure, Betty and her sisters, Fliss and Charlie, are given of a set of magical objects, each with its own powers: a scruffy carpet bag, a set of wooden nesting dolls, and a gilt-framed mirror. And these magical objects come with their own terrible secret: the sisters’ family is haunted by a generations-long curse that prevents them from ever leaving.

“This audiobook has just what a middle-grade adventure needs–engaging characters, an unpredictable plot, a bit of fun, superstition, magic, and Bianca Amato’s captivating narration. Amato excels at evoking the dank, mist-shrouded marshes of Crowstone and their ominous past, which seeps into the story’s present. She creates distinct personalities for the brave Widdershin sisters–thoughtful Fliss, adventurous Betty, and lively, lisping Charlie–and further enhances the narrative through the skillful voicing of a diverse cast of characters. This is a suspenseful tale of love and loyalty overcoming treachery and malice. With perfect pacing Amato draws the listener into a world of enchanted objects, deadly curses, and a gripping, high-stakes quest to survive. A wonderful listen!”—AudioFile
