This sequel to The Wild Women of Lake Anna; is part of an award-winning adventure series for ages 8-12. This book was a silver finalist in the Florida Publishers Association book contest. Bailey Fish, 11, is starting to enjoy her new life in Central Virginia after her traveling mother sends her to live with her grandmother, Sugar. Suddenly strangers arrive--a father Bailey does not know and an annoying half sister, Norma Jean. Norma Jean is not like Bailey's best friends, who are more like real sisters. Norma Jean even sees the good in Justin, a former bully, who is raising a pet crow. Bailey and her best friends form the No Sisters Sisters Club to exclude Norma Jean. Attitudes change when the sisters learn that they must work together to solve the scary mysteries of Bailey's stolen kitten and a fire at an old house. Then, a drive with their father for ice cream is not the adventure Bailey expects. Each of the books in the realistic adventure series features historical nuggets--this, Jack Jouett's ride (Revolutionary era), and the Battle of Trevilian Station (Civil War), discussion questions, maps, photos, glossary and Web and book resources. The illustrator is Christopher Grotke.
