The sequel to R.I.P. Nanny Tobbins, the quirky and very funny MG fantasy title that is perfect for fans of A Girl Called Corpse and Nevermoor.

1851, London

Six months have passed since the grand opening of the Great Exhibition β€” and Albertine and her family couldn't be happier.

But the season of good fortune ends abruptly when a Royal Jewel goes missing and Albertine's friend, dearest Blot, is accused of its theft. Determined to prove Blot's innocence, Papa launches an investigation. Yet despite his best efforts, the true thief cannot be found.

With time running short before Blot is imprisoned, Albertine hatches a plan. She will enlist the help of the grown-up with the sharpest eyes she knows: her ghost-governess, Nanny Tobbins.

Residing in the graveyard has, however, turned Nanny quite odd and managing her is rather difficult.

Will Nanny Tobbins' presence assist Albertine in clearing Blot's name, or will it make matters worse?
