The Spy Princess

SHE READ ABOUT ADVENTURES—BUT THE ONE SHE HAD WAS THE BEST OF ALL.

When bored and curious twelve-year-old Lady Lilah decides to disguise herself one night and sneak out of the palace, she learns more than she bargained for. One, the country is on the edge of revolution; and two, her older brother is one of the forces behind it all. When the revolution happens, its violent, lawless fallout is not what anyone expects. Lilah and her friends want to help make things right, however they can—but what can four kids do?

Become spies, of course!

Sherwood Smith's The Spy Princess is an adventure with a side order of magic—just right for fans of Tamora Pierce and Patricia C. Wrede.
