Olivia Kidney has been through a lot. Being able to communicate with ghosts means never a dull moment—or a normal life. But just when things have calmed down, Olivia’s father insists she enroll at one of the most prestigious arts schools in Manhattan! Yet her school problems take a backseat when Olivia must help her friend Frannie solve an age-old mystery, one that forces her deep underground into the infamous, intricate subway system of New York City. And what awaits her makes ghosts look like child’s play. Favorite characters return in this wild, funny, completely unforgettable adventure. Olivia Kidney remains one of the freshest heroines in children’s literature.

VOYA

In this third installment of the Olivia Kidney books, Olivia and her father seem to have found a home, albeit in a rather unusual brownstone complete with snapping turtles and ghosts. Old friends and enemies return, and new allies appear, as Olivia adjusts to yet another new school, helps her friend Frannie search for a way to grow, reunites with her mother, and keeps an eye out for potential assassins as the Princepessa's wedding approaches. Things are seldom as they seem, a lesson both Olivia and her readers learn. The story succeeds most on the personal level, with Olivia herself. Younger middle school readers in particular will appreciate this smart and sassy character. She is insightful, empathetic, and strong-willed. She is both comfortable with her outsider status and plagued by a desire for a "normal" life-in other words, she is in the midst of the uncertainties of adolescence. The fantastic elements are grounded by Olivia's realistic, believable voice. Coincidences pull the many plot strands together and propel the story forward, but the result will not be unsatisfying for readers who enjoy fantasy with a pinch of reality, a dollop of urban life, and an ensemble of colorful, quirky characters. Although the book might have greater depth for readers who have met Olivia before, it also stands alone. Potter's rich descriptions, dry humor, and artsy, otherworldly, city setting will keep readers going to the end, and perhaps send them in search of earlier books.
