Skye Sullivan

Join Francie and the gang one last time as they team up to fight their most savage enemy of all: Kong’s fleas… 
Yes, they’ve got to find the Baron and his sixth cursed book before untold horrors are unleashed on the town. 
Of course a wealthy widow was poisoned at the first annual poetry slam competition. 
And by now you shouldn’t be surprised to learn that an avant-garde performance art troupe has moved into Francie’s backyard and rehearsals consist of bongos, glitter and panda costumes.
