THEODOSIA AND THE STAFF OF OSIRIS

THEODOSIA AND THE STAFF OF OSIRIS, by R.L. LaFevers (Houghton Mifflin 2008)(ages8-12). Theodosia Throckmorton is back, at home in London, but mysteries abound when mummies keep appearing in the foyer of the museum where her father's curator. When her father is suspected of stealing the antiquities, and when her grandmother insists on finding her a new nanny, Theodosia must use all her wits and forces at her command to prevent another uprising by THE SERPENTS OF CHAOS.

THEODOSIA AND THE STAFF OF OSIRIS is a fun, exciting adventure through a London that will feel familiar to readers of Conan Doyle. Theodosia's efforts to thwart evil while at the same time keep her secrets from her parents and those at the museum are engaging and entertaining.

And there's a very special cameo by HMS Dreadnought...
