Publisher's Summary:
"How little you know of your own father. He took something I cherished long ago and hid it away. You will help me find it."
The legendary Luck Uglies are the most deadly, dangerous band of men Ryley O'Chanter has ever met - and her father, Harmless, is their high chief. Having been in exile for ten years, the Luck Uglies are back in Village Drowning, but bringing them out of the shadows and back together was never going to be without its perils.
There is bad blood between Rye's father and a sinister masked man named Slinister Varlet. As Harmless and Slinister vie for control of their men, Rye finds herself caught up in their dangerous game. Throw in a vengeful son, a dark curse, and a collection of thieves and smugglers, and the stage is set for another pause-resisting adventure.

Charming tales
Plucky heroine Rye O'Chanter returns with her friends to foil villainous plots, uncover mysteries, and save the day. It's a terrific series for kids of ALL ages! Funny and wise.
For Any Age, not just for kids
It may be geared toward the younger set, but as a 68 year old grandma, I really did enjoy this book..It took me away from the WWII era books I have been soaking in this summer and gave me a change from the usual Romance ( i know where this is going) books that i read for fun.. I enjoyed Rye immensely and especially loved all the colorful characters in this book..If you are looking for something different, this is it! Medieval Times, ghostly alleys, weird characters, secrets and Bog Noblins...what more can you ask for to pass the time...Have to read book two now.
Has all the very best ingredients for a truly great story
Wonderful. Well written, exciting, and just plain fun to read. Great characters, with fantastical names but human hearts, both good and evil. Adventure on every page, with a young heroine who is not afraid to fight for what she believes in. Her friends and family are similarly brave, true and resourceful in the face of great challenges.
All the very best ingredients for a truly great story.
Fantastic book
This is a great book. My kids and I read the first in the series and loved it. This one, they couldn't wait till storytime. They were ready and waiting on me. And impatient - if allowed would want to read the entire book in one sitting. I would highly recommend this book...adventure, great characters, great plot. My kids' description....awesome. We are currently reading the third in the series.
Good Sequel. Great Story. Fun Read.
Another thriller from this author! Can't wait for book 3!
Book 2 takes things a bit further in the story of our main characters, and also a bit back---as in, we get to learn some of their past history.
